Wonder if they count stuff like:
‘Hold on let me just ask chatGPT if what i’m doing sounds right’ - once or twice a month user
‘Survey? Well yes i have used an AI while developing’ - same user
What, you mean like using the a* algorithm for pathing, or state machine-based decision-making for enemies?
I don’t mind AI being used if it’s being used for things like placeholder assets being made or things like coming up with character names. Though, I’m not sure I’d want big triple AAA companies using it to boost efficiency since that’ll just mean more cash grabbery, loot boxery, and general enshittification being pushed out quicker.
AI can be a great tool when used less as a magical entity that will solve all of your problems. Though, for me, it actually does solve one problem I have a lot whenever I get an idea for a story I wanna write but never get past the first few paragraphs: character names. I can come up with a solid idea but struggle with coming up with character names and usually end up not being super creative on that front. AI providing a first name is always great so I’m not spending forever letting ideas go to waste because I have no main character name.
This is an ad for unity and whatever ai shit they are about to hock
You’d be stupid not too, its a very useful tool for all sorts of use cases.
Really? Bcz I do Indie dev, and every use case I’ve tried produces dogshit. Want to make some textures using AI, they’re incoherent. Okay, what about a 3D model? No, also dogshit incoherent garbage… k, well, if I can’t do a 3D model with AI, maybe I can just make a run animation… yeah, it will take 3 straight weeks of training data to make a shitty run cycle.
How is any if that useful exactly?
Want to mock up a character design to model?
Want some place holder art that helps set the theme more than programmer art?
Pixel art that requires little alteration to be usable in a final product?
Want someone to help you think out pseudo code on how to approach something?
Want to quickly check your code and get some ideas for refactoring?
Shit want to get an entire function?
Need to fill out el-generico the npcs dialogue about life in town?
Etc.
AI will not do everything for you, but it’s great at assisting in my development and often only requires a little bit of human intervention to be usable. It’s a huge time saver.
I have used ChatGPT to generate code. It literally made up API calls that didn’t exist. I’m not sorting through that garbage just to see if it can get the logic sort of right. As for the rest, you’re absolute wrong. I’ve tried to generate textures, pixel art, and 3D assets before, and it’s all ended up being nonsensical and useless.
Well I dunno what else to say, I’ve had great experience with all those things in my game dev.
If you’re having to"sort" the response you are giving it way too much at once.
Definitely not the code because it’s always junk, but I kinda want to use ai other stuff and try to slap it together into a game and make the most polished turd possible
Careful, you go saying stuff like this on Lemmy and you’re bound to end up on a guillotine.
Fuck the luddites.
