in case you missed it
a new position on the scratch foundation’s website went up recently, and the job description confirms that scratch 4.0 is in development. says it’ll feature a “re-imagined online community and creative ai”… whatever that means
no word of a release date, but that’s understandable. i’m actually kind of excited for this, i feel like scratch’s online community hasn’t been working super well recently so hopefully this’ll fix some of those issues. as for the ai thing… please no. so many things can go wrong with that…

Wherever this is used (and I could only see it used for code or costumes) will be detrimental to the entire website. learning to code is the entire point of the website, is why projects are open-source, and is the big separator between good and bad projects. and I am just going to go insane if people start using AI in costumes or thumbnails.
this. why would any beginner feel like learning themselves if they can just ask a robot to do all the work for them and learn absolutely nothing?
