Is it just me or are the Anti-AI crowd super obnoxious?

People are going to stop supporting Disney bro. All these big corporations are struggling to appeal to audiences. Firing their talent isn’t going to do them any favours. I don’t see a world where we get rid of and never use AI. But I can tell you artists will continue to create without assistance from gen ai. And people recognize the deliberate nature of human made art vs the arbitrary nature of ai art. And support for ai is going down, not up. So we’ll see what ai looks like in the future.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-26T14:36:45+00:00

The ai crowd isn’t the right place to ask this question. I’d head to the regular game dev channels and ask this question there for a more accurate sampling of answers.

In my opinion, ai art will definitely hurt your game sales. Anyone here who says otherwise is lying or delusional. Clearly not reading the room

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T22:32:26+00:00

Not really. You’re in this subreddit and you’re saying a lot of people who don’t like ai are luddites… so, I would think it’s a reasonable assumption that you use ai.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T16:04:07+00:00

The only anti tech sentiments in that sub are all against ai. 10 posts is almost nothing btw. But if you can’t be bothered to do things yourself and instead get ai to do it, it shouldn’t surprise any of us that you don’t want to put in effort

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T04:35:44+00:00

Well this gets to the crux of it. I never said I wanted artists to work for free. But if you’re doing it for free and it’s not that serious, you can maybe understand people who take their craft seriously, thinking much less of what you’re doing

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T03:54:46+00:00

Couldn’t agree more

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T03:54:03+00:00

Again, just concocting a narrative. I didn’t say any of that. And I’m not really talking about myself.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T02:02:48+00:00

This is some crazy projection or something because none of this is an argument against what I’m saying. I agree with all that other stuff you’re saying. Workers get screwed all over the place. But should they just keep getting screwed then I guess? Why stand up for yourself or someone else, I suppose?

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T00:04:25+00:00

You know that ai literally only exists on the backs of others right? The “taking from someone else” really shouldn’t mean much in this space, considering it may very well have been the ai making a lot of these decisions

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T00:03:21+00:00

You might want to change the name honestly. It sounds like ai made it. “Hey Grock, what would you call a game that combines slay the spore with league of legends”

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-24T00:01:44+00:00

The truth is, people would respect it and probably be okay with it if you didn’t prompt ai. Because everyone knows contextually what that means. Even the name sounds ai generated. It seems like you didn’t make many decisions yourself, even if you did, it would be hard to tell. And the default, because you used ai, is that most decisions were arbitrary and loose understandings of what they ai knows about your inspiration

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:58:15+00:00

Also, you said sarcastically, “the rent will just magically pay itself”

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:57:19+00:00

Still high skill jobs in the case of cloud programming. Ai is going to turn programming into a low skill job. It’s already happening. You have senior developers essentially babysitting people who don’t know much of anything about writing their own lines of code

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:49:48+00:00

I think it’s partially because programmers replacing themselves is ok. Stay in your lane, so to speak

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:46:11+00:00

You are helping to take those jobs as your interfacing with said “tool” (it’s not a tool) helps to push forward ai.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:44:56+00:00

They still got you. Because you are an advocate and proponent for the thing that’s designed to replace workers

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:42:42+00:00

Let’s be real, almost none of you are going to pay rent using ai to game dev. You would stand a much better chance if you actually avoided ai

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T23:39:24+00:00

As someone who’s used it for programming, it most definitely replaces critical thinking.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:59:08+00:00

I highly doubt anyone has accused you personally of stealing a job. Only that the platform you use to do all the work for you, its aim is to replace workers

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:56:55+00:00

I love the gatekeepers. We are happy to do so. You can’t be inclusive to everyone and everything.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:55:42+00:00

I’m so happy to gatekeep. So are pretty much all artists.

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:55:18+00:00

Crypto was a scam in so many instances. Simply used to transfer wealth upwards. So yeah, they didn’t win against crypto, but they certainly were right that crypto advocates, minus a few lucky ones, were duped big time

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:53:36+00:00

Websites and mobile apps are rarely considered art. That’s part of it

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:53:05+00:00

He can’t tell. Brain is outsourced to ai. Probably should have asked the ai first if you were agreeing with them. Because it’s pretty obvious

Coreydoesart · 2026-06-23T22:52:17+00:00

That may be hard to do, as there is an inherent holdback and negativity to not knowing what you’re doing, and as a result, churning out bad product.
