"Product lead at Roblox"

So... monetizing modules children made for free? Isn't that like the whole thing with Roblox?

I think you'd be surprised how many are made by adults with the exploitation of children in mind.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The vast majority are made by children, however, and the model itself is designed for expressly this. Whether adult-aged children also engage with said model is less a condemnation of those individuals and more a merit of the system itself working better than intended, given that this era offers multiple sources for that exploitable demographic. Sickening, sad, and deplorable, yes. Call it what it is, though.

The vast majority are maybe made by children but the popular games are all made by game studios

Good, with the power of AI, my shitty $100 laptop will be worth $1000 now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Even my desktop isn't worth that much.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Another AI except they for some reason made it exclusively available through a proprietary children social media chatroom?
