Idk this part is bugging me like. Why not?

No money

That’s different

it’s automating away creative work as creative work is being automated

And that’s wrong?

I asked that question as a response to Ash, who said it’s wrong to automate away creative work

phrase your questions better
there’s something here that’s just buried under layers of things you think are known but arent

I! Was! Responding! To! Ash! Who had just said! It was wrong! To automate! ā€œCreative workā€!

The game doesn’t have to get stuck on my question we can move on

yet two people got it wrong so maybe you should think a little harder

Or we can keep talking about this IDC

I think this is flawed too but idt it’s essential to your argument

Basically the question I’m asking is ā€œif this automation does creative work that nobody was actually ever going to do in the first place without it, is that still wrong?ā€

okay so

ā€œa guy makes a video game, and does everything except the art. he cannot do the art. is automating the art wrongā€?

Yes

Or what I said above, if the automation is enabling creativity that couldn’t happen without it, is that still bad

now thats a thinker

I think it’s wrong if you have the means?
The Roottrees are Dead is a good example: it was originally a Game Jam game, and given that time frame and the devs’ inexperience, it used AI art to achieve its vision.
When it became a full-fledged game, the developed hired an actual artist to do the pictures.
