Epic Games boss calls Steam AI disclosures "really irresponsible of Valve" as they make it "much, much, much harder for a game developer to have a chance of success"
"You have to get this Scarlet Letter of AI attached to your product"

Ive seen multiple posts online saying that "there are no game devs doing games without AI today" which is complete bullshit

I don't know who needs to hear this, it is entirely possible to build a whole game without generative AI. All our art, VO, worldbuilding, lore etc. is done by humans because we think our team is awesome and we value their expertise and labor. 🧡

Again, I managed to make a custom PBR solution run 60 fps on the PS Vita, on a 128 MB vram budget.
I feel like people just forgot how to optimize stuff.
