The annoying thing about the "oh we left a placeholder" generative AI slop excuse is that that is EXACTLY NOT how you should be using placeholders. Anything "not obviously terrible with a panicked hurried half-awake glance" is getting shipped.
In gamedev, if you're using a placeholder asset, best practices involve marking it as placeholder so garishly and offensively clearly PLACEHOLDER that you can't possibly miss it. Also flagging that asset in the dev process so it can be identified quickly before the final build.

It really should be easy for a video game studio CEO to have faith in their team, which has been making games very successfully with real human artists until now.
Looking at your own success and deciding to "wait out the courts" on using LLM theft is wild behavior and so disrespectful to your devs

"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

I made a video of my process crafting some creatures of our game Alterfauna✨
I'm using watercolor and colored pencils, my scanner (aka my best friend), Photoshop and Spine
(sorry for the 1rst part's bad quality, I filmed with my shitty phone, I work at night and the light is horrible)

All you need to do is interact with the art you like and the artists you respect it’s that simple. Don’t be passive don’t just interact with the posts calling out the use of genai and its harms also put energy into the good art and give that room to be seen as well.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

Just fucking insane to see the absolute (intentional) collapse of full remote jobs available for AAA studios in so short a time. Why would I EVER move for a job again when I could be laid off weeks after moving my entire life across the globe??
