Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage

I agree the current state of affairs makes people even more against AI and I think people have a good reason to be against AI, but don’t you find it a bit contradictory how people are less antagonistic towards E33 AI use now that it has been revealed?

People are far more antagonistic towards games when the first thing they see is the AI label, to the point where they dismiss the entire game as AI slop, but it seems people are willing to be more lenient on AI usage when they first get to experience the game for what it is. This unreasonable reaction to the first impression is why companies would rather hide their AI usage rather than inform the customer.

Yeah when AI first came out creative differences aside it seemed harmless. But, now people are noticing what the hell why is ram, gpu, ssd prices skyrocketing? And then seeing headlines of companies halting selling to consumers are companies buying up stock.

Now people are now seeing what was free to use coming at a price. And its made worse by people seeing something that interests them seeing they might need to upgrade see themselves priced out then get the added salt in the wound of AI assisted being marketed.

It’s almost as if AI as a tool isn’t the problem. Instead it’s just a bunch of misinformation idiots not understanding the actual problems and misdirected anger.

AI as a tool is fine. It’s no f****** different than Photoshop.

The problem is companies breaking copyright law and stealing information and data to train the models in the first place.

A model trained off non-solen artwork used with intent is perfectly fine.

It’s not like we go around demanding everyone say that they use Photoshop whenever they do because oh they could be tricking us and it’s not hand drawn. No, we just expect digital art to be made with digital tools.

Ai’s problem is one of legal issues, not artistic ones and people need to get out of their own asses about it at this point. It’s a f****** tool. Any tool used wrong is bad. A tool used correctly with purpose and intent is fine.
