Unearthly critter and a unicorn
The thing that realy bakes my bacon about genAI being used for placeholder assets is that this is how you train junior artists.

By outsourcing it to plagiarism doomsday device you loose out on a whole new generation of _experienced_ artists in your studio! Why would you kill your own future?

don't worry, guys, the most human parts of the game- the artistic development- is all we're replacing with the plagiarism machine! all the final stuff you play with will have a human labour veneer so we can avoid being cancelled

My friends, I say this with all the love in my heart: Right now might not be the moment for “But we should be TOLERANT and NUANCED about the plagiarism machines!”

Your tolerance and “nuance” will be weaponised by the grifters and their apologists. Please respect yourselves more.

The Elder Scrolls Online graphic people knew exactly what they were doing with the bodypaint on the belly of that Argonian. And I am sincerly applauding them for getting it past the marketing clowns! 😁

“We just use AI to generate ideas for our concept art”
