Generative AI is transforming game development, including in surprising ways. The biggest fears are of AI taking jobs or ripping off work, but some developers have found themselves up against a problem they never expected: being accused of using AI when they didn't.
A quick browse on Steam is enough to see that a lot of people are using AI for games, with AI capsule art particularly apparent. But there are still a lot of indie devs who aren't, and who don't want to be associated with AI because of the potential commercial and reputational damage.
