@ophiocephalic@kolektiva.social @Rycochet@furs.social he's never been the peerless creative genius he's made himself out to be; most of the work that people actually love comes from the period when he was married to Marcia Lucas, who is reported to have made many suggestions for Star Wars that made it the beloved classic that it is. Once they divorced, much of the heart dropped out of his work and nothing he's done since has stood the test of time in the same way. Familiar story, really: man takes credit for a woman's ideas and skates to undeserved glory.

@womble@infosec.exchange Interesting; but yes, unsurprising. IMO his embrace of AI is ultimately a rugpull on a lot of talented people who did the heavy lifting to get him to where he is now @Rycochet@furs.social
