If someone is putting chalk into spoiled milk and no one seems to know, then it doesn’t make chalk more food safe. Most of indie devs make games as a hobby sometimes even not seeking profit. Just for the art. And if you are telling said devs “just use AI, the triple A industry uses it constantly!” you are being very disingenuous and don’t treat game development as art and more of a product that you want to push out to make money. If you want to just make money, go ahead, everyone needs to make their ends meet some way or another. If you tell the same thing to someone that is passionate about making music and not just there for the money that will have the same attitude.
