Hello new folks 👋
I'm Andy, and I'm a Senior UI/UX Designer at Respawn.
I've been in games for over 12 years, working on a bunch of stuff across PC, console and mobile.
You may have seen some of my work in things like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Sea of Thieves, Dirt 5 and GRID.

The kids actually made animals that don't exist. The AI just put a bunch of stuff that already exists together into a polished slop blender. You can't get a better illustration of why AI can't create anything new while human creativity is bottomless.

Stop. Back up. You just came through that door. No don't look at that, you know that's there. Look at the ground. They always look at the ground. Now, what does the player see? What do they understand right now?

Also I try not to discourse but FWIW, being anti-gen AI isn't gatekeeping.
Everyone is capable of creating art. If you're mad that you don't have the time to practice or learn then consider that we could be focusing our efforts on automating the mundane parts of life instead of the fulfilling ones.

The way I actually gasped when I saw some positive news on the timeline.
Warhammer maker Games Workshop has banned the use of AI in its content production and its design process, insisting that none of its senior managers are currently excited about the technology. https://bit.ly/49xT9Xl

Most of us did not choose to write or draw or design so that we could put products on the shelf. We chose to do it because it’s a set of skills we enjoy exercising, that give us fulfillment.
It’s like asking a pro pitcher to just let a machine pitch for them. Fuck off and give me the ball.
