Newds, Nightshade and Corporate Greed | S3 E01

The AyeSphere by The AyeSphere

Episode notes

Welcome back! In this first episode of the year, Joy, and Aye delve into the latest author scandal surrounding NY Times bestselling author J.D. Barker and his mass solicitation of Booktok content creators for lewds, nudes and more inappropriate content to promote his upcoming book and why you absolutely should NOT do this. After that, they take a look at the mass layoffs happening throughout the games industry, and fall headfirst into a rant about how AI is being exploited by corporate greed to destroy the creative industries and what we as creators can do to combat it. Also, there’s a brief segment where Joy has to jump off mic to give her husband the Heimlich maneuver because it wouldn’t be an episode of The AyeSphere without some chaos going on in the background!
