,"I don't want to see slop made from a plagiarism machine." There's generally a deep distaste for the technology and the current hype around it, as expressed inThere are obviously a load of meme and image reactions, a whole bunch of criticisms of the image itself and what it gets 'wrong', and the tiniest smattering of folk who thought this was a good idea."An AI using AI to imagine what AI would look like in a physical form; doesn’t get more meta than that…".
Nightdive goes on to say that this was purely about"using AI to imagine what AI imagines itself to look like" rather than replacing any human creative endeavour.:"We will use AI again to create other pieces . We may well use AI in other areas too. But this will never be at the expense of using skilled people or their creative talents."
It doesn't feel especially outrageous to me that a studio used a widely available creative tool in this way, though perhaps there was some confusion over exactly what it was doing: there's no suggestion that the System Shock remake will feature AI-generated imagery. And Shodan is a touchstone moment for a lot of PC gamers,, and people can get precious about the things they love.
