GOG now using AI generated images on their store

AI witch hunting is going to get old, fast.

No one will be able to notice in 2 years at most. Today, if you know what you're doing, you can already make something visually perfect. Just a matter of time.

It's kind of fun to live something that will be so shortlived tho. Kind of special.
 
Using ai tools to manage their margins for a store front that sells drm free games.

What kind of drugs are you Salem witch hunters using?

let's raise their prices by 50% so they can spring for additional staff!
 
Since I had to go looking for it, I saved the image in question so you don't have to hunt it down like I did

In a world when one font is not enough for four digits, here comes AI-generated slop, trained on equally terrible human slop. Because design thinking is hard.

Oh no, all those potential billions and riches that an artist could of made by doing literally what the AI would have done anyway. Grab a bunch of assets online and slap em together with illustrator.

Yeah this is a non story.
 
How much money would it really cost to just pay some guy to draw some banners or whatever for them? The amount they'd save doesn't seem worth it for the backlash, even if the majority were ok with it.
 
Nah, their high and mighty attitude is gone. They are not doing anything for the good of the hobby, but to make money. Fuck GOG
I don't fucking care. Fuck AI, and fuck them for using it, no matter the cope
Now now, settle down.

GOG, like most businesses, isn't a non-profit organisation nor does it have unlimited money. If this is your first time realising that, I'm sorry you had to find out like this.
 
I always find it fascinating that people suddenly started to care about normal human slop they never cared before. Almost as if same people were previously buying their stuff and before using that stuff they were stopping themselves and admired amazing human art that is on chocholate bar with a dog and Christmas theme.

I am particularly thankful to AI that it replaced those artists time to do actually something that they can be proud of rather than human slop they were doing.
