>Announce game with a giant disclaimer on Steam saying that it uses generative AI to make trees
>piss off a ton of people and make them boycott the game when it was already pretty obscure and needed all the attention and good PR it could get
>go silent
>game comes out
>turns out there is no AI usage and it uses Speedtree for the trees like almost every other 3D game
The fuck was the logic here? Did they somehow think it'd be good PR to lie about using AI for their game?

I do because I'm completely baffled by the fact that a developer lied about the fact they AREN'T using AI slop in their game.

Suits think AI is the next big thing and unironically think it's a selling point for the average consumer to hear that their product is "AI-Powered".

okaay i bited. you have to click couple of times and scroll down million miles and you see small disclaimer that they used "ai" for some leaf textures or whatever the fuck.
like who the fuck actually cares. previously they did with some photoshop filter. but now it's "ai" because even more randomly generated. har har it's so evil that they used even more time to maake the fucking green texture with shit. god damn. get a alife

Speedtree is technically a generative AI. It's just old tech that pre-dates the widespread use of the term.

It's not even AI, that's the point. They used Speedtree, a program used for countless games for many years. Witcher 3, God of War, RDR2 etc all used it too. It's completely unrelated to AI-generated images.

It still generates them using AI, it's just that anti-AI people are fucking retards about everything.
