I once heard Markiplier (of all people) said it best: if you use AI for creating, you will quickly get bored of it, because you're enamored with the effect, not the process. The love and need for the process of creation (however long, hard and grueling it may be) is what makes an artist.

Metroid: Other R

An anonymous Japanese game studio is making applicants draw in front of them during interviews to prove they don't use generative AI 🎮 “Only human creators can produce compelling characters and graphics from scratch”

The Gamer was pretty much the *only* outlet willing to stick their neck out for us adult game makers. Their coverage was invaluable in getting the word out about payment processor censorship 😥
