Re: Retro Indie Title "Moons of Darsalon" Is Headed To Consoles, Complete With Icky AI Art

It all depends on how you view the place of AI art in this day and age. Some say it'll steal job opportunities from artists. I say it actually emphasizes the need to hire artists, considering the limitations of AI art.

I see AI as a boon, as it's helped me out a lot, definitely in my job but especially as a dad of two preschoolers. I can always just feed story ideas to it and let it cover the gaps in my ideas. Include a quick faux book cover image generation request and the kids already have a great bedtime story that night. It's even serialized and stars them as the main characters. Saves me a lot on storybooks.

It does no better with movie details, adding in scenes that never happened. It claimed Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade had a tank chase in the middle of a crowded city and another scene involving Indy riding a horse and carriage inside the grail temple!

It's useful for other things, but it clearly needs a lot more work.
