Game AI Summit: The Human Cost of Generative AI
Generative AI is rapidly gaining popularity in the games industry, but beneath the hype lies a troubling reality. This technology, often built on uncredited and stolen work, is already being used to replace creative jobs and threatening the livelihoods of countless artists and developers. Beyond that, the massive environmental costs of maintaining AI infrastructure raise serious concerns about sustainability. This session will delve into the real, human dangers posed by generative AI, from its impact on the quality of creative work to the potential loss of genuine artistry in games. It will also discuss ways to eliminate some of these issues and how we can use the technology to enhance our workflows rather than replace them.
