'Baldur's Gate 3' Game Studio Says 'Divinity' Won't Include AI-Generated Art
Larian Studios announced that its upcoming Divinity game will not feature any AI-generated art, clarifying this position after confusion and criticism about generative AI tools in game development. Studio head Swen Vincke stated that, to eliminate doubts, Larian will avoid using GenAI tools even during concept art development. However, the studio will continue to test AI-powered tools for non-art areas to improve development efficiency but pledged that any creative assets generated by AI would require verified consent and clear data ownership. Larian emphasized that machine learning will support rather than replace creative teams or voice actors. The studio’s stance responds to industry concerns about the impact of AI on creative jobs and assures fans that art and creative content will come from human artists.
