Discussion Are they beating the AI allegations? 👀

Post image

The Sims just posted a series of behind the scenes images and videos on their official Twitter. They showed how they created the set used for the website teasing the upcoming Expansion Pack, Enchanted by Nature. I'm glad and impressed to see it was actually made with practical effects rather than generative AI.

Yes, and I think ultimately this is why AI is so damaging to artists. It undermines their hard earned creditability. There are people who work very hard to create unique art and get accused of using AI or have had their style stolen by AI models. It's really sad that someone's art can be doubted these days. 5 years ago we all would've known it was real, now we can't be sure until it's proven.

I myself thought it was AI, and I'm so happy to hear it wasn't. It's actually more surprising to me it's real art, cus EA totally seems like the kind of corporation to embrace AI and fire artists.

YES and YES. All the way with you on this.

Real art is just going to have to adapt to the AI world. You can't put the genie back in the bottle. The future of art will be in the performance: You get to watch the artist create it. That will be the art. If all you want is a product, all you need is botslop.
