AI has not replaced any jobs to any significant degree
Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage

Tell that to all the people who lost their jobs.

LOL who? The layoffs from over hiring during covid, high interest rates and the boneheaded tariffs this past half year?

Except in this case it wasn't used to replace talented artists.
AI is precisely for this kind of work, the uninspired, "someone's gotta do it" kind of boilerplate bullshit. No artist is enthusiastic about having to make brick pattern number 3591. But someone's gotta make it. At that point, it might be just one artist generating all required 8000 patterns via AI, knocking it out in one day, then getting back to working on things that do require their talent.

People who are not artists love saying things like this.
