I do not have a strong one way or the other opinion. I would like my games to be more human written or human art, but have found that AI helps come up with some ideas to start things. I can also see where some of the art can show what you mean in a game like the Tomb of Horrors has several pictures back in the day. I would like to see the people get paid for their time and specialty, but also see that it is becoming everywhere like micro-plastics or something.

I play a lot of golf and some of the big companies in the game started advertising AI designed clubfaces. The ides is that the computer can Dr Stange through 14,000,605 possible futures to find the one that makes the golf ball go farther in 1 day over than 5 years of research. Then AI can help print one out tonight and test it tomorrow. I do not see this as good or bad as well, but the way things are moving.

It is like being a shopping mall in the age of online.

I think this is where my head is going too.... tools are tools. So much hate for illustrator or photoshop art (digital art) back in the 2010s) and honestly, it just turned into what everyone used after a while.

I am not 100% on any of this yet, so again, i think at this point = i prefer folks just state they are using it, and then.. well... if the ideas are good and the end product works well... maybe i'm fine with it. I dunno yet, more time and feels is needed

I can say that both Hasbro and Paradox literally have AI as part of their development and writing and proofing process. It's even in the NDA they make you sign as a writer. So AI authorship is out there, likely far more than more folks know even...

Seems the poll is pretty much overwhelmingly negative, with only 10% of people not put off by AI. It's encouraging that 90% of folks voted against it.
I don't expect LLM stuff will ever go away, but anyone who thinks it will be popular or profitable is kidding themselves. Total bubble.
 

So it's a retroactive classification based on whether it sells well?
not so much retroactive, but I can see it being about anticipation / expectation. Probably more about available budget for the product, I would expect C7, KP or other publishers to sell quite a bit better than some no-name homebrewer who published something for $1.99 on DTRP, and I am going to cut the latter more slack
