The deliberate conflating of AI code and AI assets as equivalent in "AI declarations" is bad.

The author here however goes further, and claims their argument against AI code is so strong, that they'd lose brain cells by actually making the argument, so we just have to accept that as fact.

They then go on to suggest that using AI for bug fixing is terrible, and hints that people should feel ashamed for enjoying a game that has gone through that process.

    I'm neutral when it comes to others having ethical objections to any LLM use, but the author's claim that House House could have just hired an independent dev to find/fix the bug that they and Unity had both unsuccessfully searched for is downright absurd. Throwing someone, even a professional, into an unfamiliar codebase and asking them to take several days to diagnose a bug when you're late in the development/release cycle is not a recipe for success.

Banning AI is stupid and settled science - ban gravity, debt, the sun, electricity.

Ban slop.

Or better yet, don't "ban" anything - judge it like any low-effort crap.
