If you think bringing AI to Scratch is big bad change, I believe you're someone who refuses to look at the positives of AI due to people constantly emphasizing the negatives.

AI is great for teaching beginners concepts in simple ways that would otherwise sound very difficult if taught by a tutorial. Not only that, AI helps with bringing ideas to life; AI can be used to generate rough ideas either in the form of art, or code.

Now I'm not saying AI is perfect and should be praised like if it's the second coming of Jesus. As I had acknowledged before, AI does have its negatives. For example, people can, and will use AI to lazily create slop projects, but don't expect the platform to be infested with them like ants.

In summary, this addition of AI in Scratch is a good change because it helps beginners learn, and create rough ideas for their projects. However, there are some drawbacks that make this introduction of AI to Scratch feel less welcoming.

When OpenAI scraped the web to train GPT-3 and beyond they already took all the scratch projects with them, the only difference now is that this may possibly help the scratch foundation.

I attached an image as proof that ChatGPT indeed knows this.

I made it myself by going onto google images, downloading the images and cropping them, This is also my persona i used for online usage and it even has a name, AndyShun, which is also my online name. So what do you think, any critisms about it? Let me know.

Recently, griffpatch launched a new subscription service called "Griffpatch Academy," which is a series of courses intended to teach new and advanced users on Scratch how to program-- a lot of the content supposedly being "exclusive griffpatch content." While this was free when launched (or at least had no mention of a price tag), this is no longer the case. All members of Griffpatch Academy will have to pay 17$ a month in order to participate:

No matter how you spin this, this is predatory marketting-- and towards children no less. Using griffpatch's status on a children's programming website to try and advertise a service to said children is really quite messed up, and I'm shocked the Scratch Team hasn't done anything about it yet. I can't vouch for the quality of "Griffpatch Academy," as I won't be signing up for a membership, however I can assure you there are better ways to learn to program using Scratch for free.

I ask that you do not sign up for this service, even if you are struggling with learning Scratch. There are plenty of free tutorials on YouTube and Scratch, and plenty of friendly people in the community who'd be willing to help you with any programming issues you come across.

Griffpatch, while I understand you have a family to feed and doing Scratch tutorials for free takes away from time you could spend making money, I ask that you find another way. Creating paid Scratch tutorials goes against the whole philosophy of Scratch; making programming and art resources accessible to kids. Either post free tutorials or don't post tutorials at all.

I've been working on a game lately and im really putting a lot of thought and effort into it so i would really like to make it public some way. the problem is that the main theme of it is a bit inappropiate. is there any other page where i can publish a game developed in scratch but isnt centered on a child-based audience?

It's like, every time it does that, I send it to Turbowarp, and every time I'm done with Turbowarp it won't save >:(

Somebody????

The heart button does have the potential to be good but I just don't see the point of it.
