I actually think AI-assisted assets would be a great use of the technology- for instance, if you were making a game set in a big city, you could fill that city with as many hundreds or thousands of ads, posters, graffiti tags, etc. as exist in real places.

Destin’s video rubbed me the wrong way for a lot of the reasons you mentioned, but I found Xalavier’s thread odd as well. He seems to be taking the argument too literally, we don’t expect every game from here on out to actually be Baldur’s Gate 3. Plenty of shorter games or games with a lesser scope can be just as…

They just admitted that Starfield would probably sell 10 million copies on PlayStstion, and yet they’re keeping that one exclusive...
I probably put a good 2k hours into the original FFT, but do we really need another version on top of the several that already exist?

Later they’ll get together and burn Beatles albums.
I think the fear mongering around ai is getting out of hand. Ai is the future get on board or get left behind.
