[…] backlash against his assertions regarding Larian’s use of genAI “to explore ideas, flesh out PowerPoint presentations, develop concept art and write placeholder text”
All of these tasks can be done by a human using tools that existed before generative AI started to rub its cock and balls on everything.
You can say that something has been “lost in translation”, but if you have AI anywhere near concept art, you are diminishing the work of actual artists.
And if those “artists” do their work on a digital tablet instead of physical media, they are also diminish the work of actual artists.
That’s not just wrong, it’s harmfully stupid.
You don’t say
I don’t remember Wacom scraping the internet and stealing artists’ entire portfolios in order to power their tablets.
I don’t recall anyone’s job being replaced by a drawing tablet.
Oh no, the printing press is bad news! Someone think of the poor scribes!
What a fucking stupid analogy
Oh no, this photography invention is going to ruin the portrait industry!
Oh no your analogies are trash!
If you say so. Technophobe.
