Honestly it's probably nice to have an AI generate "basic_bench_53". And like everything else with AI, this won't replace art design, but it will help them accelerate some menial and boring tasks.

And that's exactly what AI is good for: make the boring stuff faster, so you can invest your time into the important and fulfilling parts of your job.

    I see AI Tools like you. but there are also a lot of people who like to do boring easy tasks…

    That's fine, and maybe they will do it even more justice. It's art, and if these small assets are where your game shines, then it's probably better anyway to do all these assets from scratch. But if you wanna put your time and creativity somewhere else, you are able to efficiently complete those tasks and get to the part that you feel is most important for you game. And you will have more time to invest. And I think that makes art design and game development more fun.

    Would generating placeholder art while the game is in development earn it an "made with AI" tag? Even if its all eventually replaced by human generated content?

    I mean for me it's always a thing of real players seeing it. So if you make it public with AI art, then it's made with AI art, because part of the enjoyment people feel might come from an asset or texture that's not made by an artist.

    If you replace everything before publishing it, I think it's just part of the development cycle and no user will ever see it, and then it's fine.
