just came back here after over two years, why is there so much ai art ðŸ˜
-
like isnt this whole app abt makin games and being creative and whatnot? why use ai??? literally defeats the whole purpose of the app
-
@Butturflygurl Really not trying to be confrontational (genuinely curious) what AI is it you're speaking of? I'm pretty sure most of the available free assets were designed by people before AI image generation was a thing and there is no AI code generation in the app so... ?
-
@Butturflygurl if perhaps you mean the behavior presets like "camera follow" "move to point" "jump with button" etc that's not AI; that's code blocks painstakingly designed by the HyperPad team to make our lives a little easier and to make the visual coding cleaner because sequencing out every single behavior would lead to enormous behavior trees.
-
@NeilSenn nonono, I mean these types of images in the hub which are def ai generated
-
@themerpygirl I see. I'm nobody just a casual user and as such won't speak for anyone. My subjective opinion is a little header flare is similar to using stock assets to improve the UX of a PowerPoint presentation, team email, newsletter...
I agree the use of AI defeats the purpose of creative spaces and compromises the integrity of an environment as a whole. We need to be careful how much we pretend we don't see it.
If there's a halfway point we could reach I would hope it's that there's places where things are more and less appropriate. We're talking about a very small team with a very high volume of tasks on their plate with an active beta and a roadmap that's a mile long.
I have a design degree and love the creative space like it's sacred but I have to admit; this feels like an overworked team cutting a corner to give us a little more than literal black text on white because they are strapped for time with college, life and work that actually makes money (they do this at a loss just clinging to the hope the world will see the vast potential someday)
