New article at Curiouser! As the controversies surrounding AI art begin to spread into popular culture, so do misperceptions about what AI art is and what AI artists are actually doing. This series attempts to shed light on the process from the perspective of the artists themselves. Enjoy! #AIArt

In my last article, Eric Evans and I wrote about tying complicated AI driven NPCs into the game state. medium.com/curiouserins...barelyagame.itch.io/ai-police-in...github.com/ericevans0/A...#AI#GenAI

Most people think AI art is more real than photographs of actual people. #AI

White faces generated by AI are more convincing than photos, finds survey

Photographs were seen as less realistic than computer images but there was no difference with pictures of people of colour

I read your words again. 🙄 The work that Inworld does is not a job handled by writers. So how is it going to affect writing jobs? Again. Or are you saying we should just stick with dumb dialogue trees forever? I get you're anti-AI, but it happened. I don't have anything else to say ☮️

I'm surprised. I haven't seen an AI write as well as a human ever. Maybe for barks like "Buy my turnips!" I just had a game I worked on cancelled an everyone fired because of costs. Cutting costs and saving a game or studio saves jobs. I hope they make it.

Character AI Founders Noam Shazeer and Daniel De Freitas are Google alumni so, it's not far-fetched. I hope to see the company evolve into something exciting. #AI

I'm curious. What writer's rooms have been reduced because of AI? AI isn't anywhere near the level of ability of a professional writer. At all.

AI powered NPCs offer a completely different service than writers of dialogue trees can provide. If you prefer one over the other, that’s fine, but there is no reason to view it as an attack. 🤷

I’m going to read a book made out of paper that I got from the library. I’m just posting this because it makes me happy and I want to remind people it’s still a fun thing to do. 📚

You think when you turn on your computer at 11 pm to play a game a live paid writer pops on to role play all 200 characters for you in real time? That’s not how it works. AI driven NPCs don’t take jobs from writers. They do something writers don’t do and can’t do.
