I am completely fine with demanding that data center developers build renewable energy infrastructure to mitigate the impact of their electricity use.
every major AI lab should be required to use 100% renewable energy, build solar infrastructure, do rigorous environmental impact assessments, and operate at carbon neutral or better
Anthropic Flags Gas Supply as One of Its Biggest Near-Term Risks

i think AI generation with regards to indie games is mostly just going to amplify the situation the situation developers were already in
players will find new games from sources they trust... streamers & reviewers, word of mouth from friends, or developers they already like
