TBH, with how much criticism Square Enix received for including some AI-generated assets in Foamstars, I am surprised this game isn’t getting more condemnation from the anti-AI crowd.
So correct me if I’m wrong but the developer has come out in favor of AI but there isn’t any proof any of the pals/Pokemon in this game are ai generated
Maybe this is just me but I think AI when used by an indy dev is fine but when a massive company uses it, it’s typically to lay off staff or something shitty.
What’s the difference? An indie studio using AI means a real human won’t have a job. Plus all the copyrighted work that trained the AIs to begin with puts anyone that uses it in the wrong.
In a lot of cases they don’t have the resources to hire someone, they wouldn’t have given anyone a job regardless but can now make their game.
I genuinely don’t get you guys that are “for” AI. I assume it has something to do with your jobs not being replaceable with AI or you’re jealous of artists… I don’t know.
I’m a software engineer, I see it as an useful tool that NEEDS some regulation before it gets exploited at the cost of people’s livelihood.
I just can’t help but think of all the cool ways it could be used in the near future.
It needed regulating before it started being trained on other people’s work without consent.
Artists called the camera theft too. The problem with protecting ones livelihood is a tale as old as time. It’s ok for the robot to replace laborers and it’s ok for the computer to replace accountants but the machine making pictures is where I draw the line.
Your livelihood is always under threat because capitalism designed it that way.
Wouldn’t the artists be jealous of the programmers? You never see artists stick up for programmers being replaced by game engines. Programmers had no problem giving independence to artists. But artists have a huge problem giving back to programmers. I should be able to make a Stardew Valley with no artistic skill just like Stardew Valley was made with no programming skill. We’re leveling the playing field, and look whose whining.
This is one of the dumbest takes I’ve ever read. I mean that. You should feel bad for this. I know you won’t, but you should.
Bet you can’t articulate why
I don’t have to. You did all the heavy lifting with that turd of a comment.
Is there anything backing up claims that it has AI generated assets?
