   I understand the sentiment, but I feel like not using AI for game dev isn’t going to be economically viable much longer, and I wonder why companies don’t just embrace it while it still gives them an edge.

      I think a lot of studios use it for code already, and I also don’t think that’s the contentious part.

      Games are art, and the people who make them are by and large: artists. Why would artists want to use generative AI?

         There are lots of artists using generative ai in the same way there are artists using photoshop. It’s about control and intent, and it only gets weird with gen ai because you can give away both and still get results. Many people do take the role of a non creative manager, but that doesn’t meant you have to.
