Comment on Nintendo responds to suggestion that AI-generated images used in Mario Kart World [Eurogamer]

I’m getting ready for work, so only have time to do one image, but this is pretty clearly AI generated. The other image is not quite as egregious, but if you take more than a passing glance at the car in the billboard ad, it is pretty obviously AI as well.

“Random” artifacts that you can drive past in the actual game? Game is filled with these things to trick or grind over.

  That is probably why they are all differnt sizes and the flag part is different (or non existent) in each one.
  
  The images might be based off in game assets, but if those are not AI then the artist certainly has a style that mimics AI art. I don’t think that is the case, though

none of these are particularly strong indicators that the art is ai… they feel more like stylistic choices. nintendo just like, uses a cartoonish & unrealistic styling?? i could 100% see this being generated or drawn. that’s like, the point of generative image tech…

regardless, why do you care? we’re sitting here debating whether or not the art is generated ffs; it is clearly good enough to pass as human art regardless of your subjective opinions

are you guys scared the spoopy ai is gonna jump out and get you or something?? i like, seriously don’t get the hysterics here beyond weird moral posturing.

  AI art looks terrible, is almost always trained on stolen art, and is typically environmentally unsound. There are genuinely good uses for AI, art is not one of them.
  
  We are talking about this specifically because there is reason enough to doubt Nintendo saying they didn’t use it. Nintendo may have used their own assets to train any alleged AI, buy them shutting down the conversation means we will never know.
