Following our recent Muse survey that closed on September 11th, we’d like to provide some more clarity around our research approach and apologize for any confusion caused by the last survey. Our AI efforts with Muse and Sentis are large, ambitious initiatives. With that, there are a lot of initiatives related to exploring the evolution of these offerings.
The survey for Muse that went out recently was more focused on value perceptions of potential new Muse features, which we are very keen on understanding from your perspective. Also, we understand that some of you would have liked the chance to weigh in on more usage-specific details of Muse Chat, and we assure you that this will not be the only or last time we ask for your feedback. As a matter of fact, in a couple of weeks, we will set up a few bookable sessions to facilitate your feedback - more on this to come - we are looking forward to connecting with you!
Until then, please know that these Discussions boards are frequently read and all your feedback is taken into consideration for our roadmap and priorities. Also, in the next few months, you can expect more research questions related more broadly to your experiences and desires for Muse as a product!
This should be the least of your concern at this moment, the company is about to be bankrupt from the lack of strong leadership and you’re answering questions about how a survey is done. More urgent question is how do you plan to keep the company alive now that you have chased off your biggest developers?
Muse and Sentis and DOTS and ECS and everything will hardly be relevant if the company itself is risking going down.
As for me, I’m dropping Unity from all my projects unless these crazy (literally insane) pricing and royalty TOS is changed back. Furthermore, Unity reneged on their promise to not force users to be retroactively bound by new TOS.
So, sorry… but I don’t care what you’re doing in AI anymore. Unity is a dead product for me. And I’m angry about it. Thousands of hours of time wasted, thousands of dollars in tools/assets/courses based on the belief your execs wouldn’t poison-pill my efforts.
So, don’t care. Do what you want. I’m not exploring using Muse or Sentis or Unity at all. If I were you, I’d sit outside your CEOs door and demand they change their ways or if you don’t want to do that, polish your resumes up because Unity won’t survive this.
I honestly think this anger is misdirected. A lot of us are flabbergated by the recent price introductions and honestly, this is not the forum for venting. There are a lot of honest, hard working developers who don’t have the power to influence what Unity’s management is doing. I think it’s important we are all kind to each other.
As an humble non pro developper, I will always thank Unity for bringing us the possibility to freely learn so many techniques (c# - Shader, 3D, VR…). I am also impressed by their so fast deploiement of AI into Unity.
Money is driving the world for sure, so pricing policies are key for future R&D. Pricing starts at 200K+ downloads! So it will impact average to big studios, at least they preserve their low-end users!
I will enquire about Unity possible bankrupcy, I hope it is fake news!
