tl;dr: GenAI and game design concepts traditionally referred to as "AI" (enemy behaviors, pathfinding, etc.) are not the same thing, and I'm on my knees begging people to learn the difference, lest we see more bullshit claims like what The Escapist put out re: Blue Prince.
Weird weekend, huh? Took a crack at breaking down the whole Clair Obscur genAI situation, and its bizarre fallout, as best as possible. My main takeaway right now is that people really need to figure out exactly what they're criticizing or it's going to get messy. www.polygon.com/clair-obscur...
The debate over gen AI in games is about to get a lot messier in 2026

THREAD.
My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments.
I've collected his work here...

The essayist in me want to write about whiteness in the furry aesthetic and it's effect on artistic trends, mores, and language. Ultimately as both a way to also talk about how poc furs have always been here, furry growing more diverse and who did the work, and influences from nonUSA furry scenes

it has slowly dawned on me that most people seem to have forgotten how pre-algorithm social media used to work. The concept of hashtags, searching things, and following people are alien concepts. not sure if that can be fixed tbh.

Say it with me now- placeholder assets are supposed to be bright and obvious so you DON’T ship with them.
Also it doesn’t matter if no ai-generated assets are in the final executable?? The rising sea levels aren’t gonna be like “oh well no one saw that so the climate change doesn’t count”

I just saw someone yell “they’re just using it to generate ideas!”
And
I hate to say it
But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas
Quit.

I was obsessed with wolves in middle school and I still love them now. Makes me sad to think that people are still pushing to get rid if them in the US

Look, Claire Obscur may be a good game and all, but I support it being stripped of all awards for using genAI. We cannot let game studios think they can get away with it.
