To that end Procedural Gen Tech (which he mentioned) is completely different "Generative AI" one algorithmic code controlled by a human being and the other is run by a Machine. 🙃

ARC Raiders was mentioned...okay! But failed to mention Embark said they used: "TTS (Text-to-speech, always based on real voices." Then post-launch stated they used generative AI? 🤔 🤦🏾‍♂️ this conversation just needs to continue until we have legislation against it within creative arts.

It goes without saying, but, research entities you support and what they stand for. While we can eradicate every use. We can choose what to partake in and what not to.

Isn't it funny that Detroit: Become Human—a game all about AI—was made without a single ounce of generative AI, yet is one of the best out there? There’s a big difference between tools that enhance creativity and those that just mimic or steal.

So...everyone is sending out their survey's this year, I guess?

And always get a second legal opinion if you have to.

It’s a really great challenge you put forward in an open conversation. It’s good to be educated about AI. Check out the companies you work for and keep asking questions until your are satisfied.

There is a lot of claim about “Ethical AI” this does not nor has it ever existed 🤦🏽‍♂️.

Right now a lot of prestigious institutions, businesses, governments and educational establishments are pushing for it hard core to alleviate the need for people under the guise of “it helps with productivity” 🙄

It generates millions of versions of original IP that hasn’t be “legally” provided or compensated for.

That data is used to train the AI and potentially sold onto other sub companies on the open AI or black market 🤷🏾‍♂️

Super important discussion to have an question to ask and I am really glad you asked it.

AI in itself isn’t particularly bad. It’s the application of it. There is a hard push for it to be implemented into everything by force.

Gen AI 🤖 is and full stop.

Hey guys I’ve got commissions open. Like. All the time. The post is on my account here.

Right!? Corporate greed at it's finest. I definitely don't want to be just another voice complaining into the void. But I really want to be part of active conversations to flip this script, it's definitely fuelling my fire. That goood games development can happen without AI.

All these new titles launching and not even hiding generative AI, the worst part about it they're launching in genre's that haven't had anything unique for a while. Sure, visuals look good. But developmentally and morally, it's a nightmare.

Never gets old seeing your work next to peers ✨
Such a wholesome experience! 😭

Really like the UI changes! This looks like it will make things a lot easier to understand, as the current system is overwhelming.

We're kinda back! (with this video, I mean).

Yes! They did use AI for the voices, and both teams benefit from each other work. Frustrating and just disheartening to see.

Unfortunately, both games and teams share development resources 🤦🏾‍♂️ worst choice ever.

Pretty much the status quo for me also! And it's just not even worth the investment. Thankfully, there are still game developers and publishers out there doing good things.

Really appreciate your thoughts here! - Yes! I think if we want to see change? We have to be the change. It's sad finding out later on how much a company uses AI and the fact it wasn't said by Embark before and article says a lot.

‘We were effectively props’: young stars of game development feel let down by the ‘gaming Oscars’ Announced in 2020 by the Game Awards as an inclusive programme for the industry’s next generation, the Future Class initiative has now been discontinued.

DEI is so 2023, apparently

Have I stopped playing? Immediately! Uninstalled with a refund to steam pending. Transparency is important to me.

While ARC Raiders has boasted some technical prowess.
I can't in good conscience support a studio profiting from through AI development that causes wider harm to the games industry.

I would argue they did a lot of things right. But choosing to use AI to with the excuse of "faster iteration" just doesn't cut it. VO's can take minutes to second to record or re-record, depending on talent. I'd know, I do it for a living.

I was to be 100% transparent here.

Did I play ARC Raiders? Yes I have 70hrs worth to be exact. My choice to distance myself from the franchise isn't because @arcraiders.bsky.social DEV is entirely bad.

Not sure what I was hoping for. But this isn't it. —As a pro creator first. I won't be supporting ARC Raiders any more. No matter how well my lore videos did. It's a matter of livelihood and principles.

Machines shouldn't replace human creativity. That's the line.
