Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

This is pretty much why I'm so disappointed by seeing Expedition 33 get so many nominations.

One placeholder that slipped by means there were many. The game was built with gAI at its foundations, and it doesn't matter how good the final product was, it's compromised at its core.
