'We support the work of those who are trying to limit the harm generative AI is doing to videogames and our world, and apologise that Big Walk’s LLM usage may not meet their standards'
Nah, I didn’t imply anything of the sort. First up, I was never talking about “people who say they hate AI”, but game developers. Second, I never said or implied that they would be “embarassed”. They don’t disclose it because there’s no benefit to disclosing it, as should be very apparent here.
Let me spell it out as clear as possible: The vast majority of commercial game developers use AI in some ways. Most don’t vibecode, but using it for the kinds of things that House House did is ubiquitous. Modern development tools like Visual Studio use it in ways where you might not even realise that an LLM is behind it.
You don’t have to take my word for it: Look at the sites that were essential resources to get help with bugs before LLMs were around, like StackOverflow. Its usage has declined by over 99% since 2020. Unless you know of another place where people now ask all their development questions, I think we can both take a pretty educated guess of where they went.
