I have no illusions about managers and executives, who have never worked for a living, salivating over the cost cutting opportunity. I was talking more from the perspective of the artist. I doubt any artist would consider this as actual art because it’s the most soulless way of creating art. It’s the rough equivalent of writing about what you’d want to draw instead of actually drawing it.
There’s a few of them. Notably, the guy who didn’t care that AI art is built on the back of copyright violations getting pissy about his AI-generated art not being eligible for copyright.
But more importantly here, I don’t think most artists in the gaming industry are in much of a position where they can stand by their artistic integrity. If every publisher pushes studios into using AI to be more “productive”, the choice becomes between slopping or starving—and most people don’t like starving.
We as consumers are the only ones that can afford to push back against this shit. Our survival doesn’t rely on buying DLSS 5 games so we have the ability to boycott them to send a message.
