GOG now using AI generated images on their store


Since generative AI is a hot topic right now, naturally there were going to be quite a few questions on it. GOG already gave us a non-answer in the previous GamingOnLinux article, so I was hoping they would be a bit clearer in the AMA. The only time I can see that they replied about their use of generative AI was from Maciej Gołębiewski, the Managing Director, who said:

[…] We're not planning on making absolute statements in either direction. AI tools are one of many technologies we test and try out, and in some contexts it genuinely helps us push the company (and the mission) forward.

What we will change, though, is how and where those tools are used; we understand that using new technology doesn't mean skipping human judgment.

 
Just love to see how fast we went from "yikes AI slop" to making fun of people who "still criticize AI, duhhh it's so boring, okaaay, AI isn't bad at all guys..." Same shit went for DLC, same shit for MTX, same shit for shit writing, etc etc. No integrity having bitches.
 
The fact they've already locked AMA on reddit says a lot (instead of using for further discussions and feedback). I don't understand these companies, even if you don't want to pay artists just stay quiet. Engaging in discussion or even boasting that your project uses some form of AI is a recipe for negative PR, regardless if it impacts the user experience or not.
