I spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs easier, even if it's just used in "very early ideation stages."
Zero said "yes." Most said it made their job harder.
I learnt a lot about concept artists. You should too!

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.
Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.

5/5 So folks, truly beware ☠️
Whatever “perceived” gains are to be had with this exploitive tech is truly just not worth it.
For those curious, here’s more info on what actual AI in games have and haven’t been.

4/5 As they muddle reality trying to normalize and excuse exploitative GenAi models as they are.
Also depending on how the 50+ copyright infringement cases go in the US between 2026-2027 the excuse of “everyone was using it” might not fly in the courts. And thats just one out of many issues!

3/5 Late 2022 to early 2023. So games made before that do not use GenAi, and to this day the majority of games still do not use GenAi.
Yes, there are unfortunate exceptions to that but for the most part this is how it is.
So that’s the nuance some hope is ignored-

1/5 Seeing some tech/ai slop accounts online claiming that AI has always been used in games, pretending GenAi is a part of that, when its absolutely not.
Yes, AI has always been a part of games in: NPC behaviors, Data Mining, PCG’s (Procedural Content Generation) etc
All different from GenAi!

Frustrating hearing “nobody cares” and “Americans are so disengaged”. It’s a disservice to the many, many activists and orgs who are indeed fighting to make things better. Immediate drastic change would be nice, but it’s the consistent work that actually builds longterm change. Help do that work.
Screaming "wtf" and waiting for a spontaneous uprising is going to discourage you. There won't be a spontaneous uprising. That's just not where the people are at.
Organize for the long term. Build community. Build resilience. Have a strategy for whatever corner of this thing you're working on.

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.
