I really wish there was a companion piece to this article in which all of the alluded to "higher-ups", who are pushing the technology, were afforded the same anonymity and freedom to speak candidly as these employees. The most insightful passage of this article, to me, was the individual who theorized that proponents of AI view game development as a problem to be solved, rather than a valuable process of iteration. Given the opportunity to speak freely, I'm curious if the pro-AI devs/execs would agree with that characterization.
Game development is a problem to be solved because then execs can get to the real reason they do any of this: start making money. Of course, how much money they can make selling AI slop is anyone's guess.
There likely willl be a few "stick it to the liberals" types that buy up keys en masse then dump them on key reselling sites.
