It let's users decide for themselves what they want to support, and of course Valve is happy to get that 30% cut regardless of how it was made. Epic trying to obfuscate that shit is 3000% horse shit.

    A company that wants to build AI tools for game asset generation into their engine doesn't want devs to have to disclose when they use AI tools for game asset generation, and is trying to frame forced disclosure as a bad thing? How curious, I wonder why. Oh, wait... It's money again, isn't it?

    Which like, what's the plan here? Flood the zone? Doesnt sound like a winning strategy.

    The plan here (for Epic) is games will be easier to make if you don't have to do the work, so more people will pay for the engine, and via licensing, give more royalties to Epic. Doesn't matter to them if it's 5 games that sell 5 million copies, or 5 million games that sell 5 copies.

    The big AI advocates keep trying to hide that AI is being used instead of standing proudly behind it to show people how much better they believe it to be than human only output.

    Why do they try to hide it like they are ashamed instead of standing behind their work to win people over to the supremacy of AI?

    I mean I think it depends. I have some AI projects that I put in big letters "SLOP ONLY, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK" but its like an app to replace dark souls board game character sheets and a rain world mod I didnt even publish. But people trying to make games, looking at you Claire Obscure 33, do indeed try to hide it. I personally dont give a fuck if your test assets are generated but you better not generate the real art.

    It’s on purpose. The big ai advocates are the same people that are the big anti ai people. All funded from the same place. Yall are being played.

    I’m assuming the goal is to get the left minded people to destroy their own futures by ignoring this tech.
