    There is no use of Gen AI in an indie game that should be tolerated. Period.

      That’s just not going to happen.

      Nearly any game with more than a few people involved is going have someone use cursor code completion, or use one for reference or something. They could pull in libraries with a little AI code in them, or use an Adobe filter they didn’t realize is technically GenAI, or commission an artist that uses a tiny bit in their workflow.

      If the next Game Awards could somehow audit game sources and enforce that, it’d probably be a few solo dev games, and nothing elsex

      Not that AI Slop should be tolerated. But I’m not sure how it’s supposed to be enforced so strictly.

        Doesn’t matter. AI literally hallucinates 90% of the bullshit it spews and it steals from artists. There’s a reason every triple A game that has an AI bro as a CEO gets broken further every update thanks to the unscrupulous use of gen AI coding.

        True but I don’t expect AAA studio business suits to understand that.

          Of course not, big games were ruined before the AI craze, but that doesnt mean they are getting a pass of any kind.
