Hold your horses, making by hand another 1000 cheap ugly stock waifu gacha images is not art. It is and was slop.
Most j-games that have ads that reach me were slop since forever. Same story, same looking girls, same gameplay.

In the 2025 report, the most commonly cited use of AI was the generation of visual assets and images, followed by story and text generation, and finally programming support.
So assets and story are to go first.
We automated the art, so humans can focus on labor.

It’s like bean mouth with animated movies and cartoons.
It turns out that most people weren’t that creative, anyway.
I mean, that makes perfect sense. Game development is mostly programming, so if you're an aspiring game developer these are probably inconvenient bits you'd love to automate away.
Game development is mostly programming
Is it though? Especially when you’re making use of an existing engine.
Yeah. That the whole idea behind the so called AI thing.

We're working on automating the labor too. Turns out art was just easier.

If art isn’t perfect, we can shrug. If something goes wrong with manufacturing, programming, whatever, much smaller issues can shut things down. Art brooks a greater margin of “error”.
