  I mean, there was no AI in the finished product.

    Read the article:

    “The Indie Game Awards have a hard stance on the use of gen AI throughout the nomination process and during the ceremony itself. When it was submitted for consideration, a representative of Sandfall Interactive agreed that no gen AI was used in the development of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.”

    It is wasn’t about what was released, the rules of the awards had restrictions on using AI in development and the developers lied about not using it when they submitted themselves for the award. Gen AI is bad, but lying about using it is much worse.

      GenAI being bad or not is irrelevant for this issue.

      If they had a rule that you had to wear purple polka dotted pants and they found out you didn’t, they are within their rights to strip the awards.

    It sounds like you don’t agree with the rules as written.
