I know you're being sarcastic but if we actually look on the bright side, then tools like this could make indie games easier to produce. More and better indie games could in theory bring more competition to companies like EA and that could actually pressure them to make games cheaper.
That's how I look at AI. It will never (in it's current forms) replace people, but it can turn a passionate creator into a one person army
Using AI is a form of programming - you turn the right words into action. Programming is magic, an AI user is a warlock
As a programmer I can tell you that AI is nothing like programming because programming is deterministic and repeatable and AI is anything but.
AI is actually deterministic, a random input is usually included to let you get multiple outputs for generative tasks. And anyway, you could just save the "random" output when you get a good one.
Maybe deterministic wasn't quite the correct word but basically it only gives you a result that resembles your previous result if you change absolutely nothing, not the training data for the model, not the model, not the random seed, not the prompt,... which makes it useless for iteratively approaching a usable result. I guess the output space is not contiguous might be a better way to describe it.
Right, technically deterministic, but not practically
