it’s about trust. Trust is gradually built item by item
But all it takes is one out-of-context quote to drop this accrued trust back to zero?
Them starting using slopgen reduces that trust. It reduces it enough so I don’t trust what they are saying anymore.
Honestly? This part is confusing me super hard. “They say the truth, my trust goes up. They say the truth again, my trust goes down and I no longer trust what they were saying before” - help me understand that.
I would get it if it was the other way around - “they say they don’t use slopgen, but that’s outed to be a lie, my trust goes down”, right?
because for a company the line going up is way more important that anything else, and honouring words demonstrably doesn’t put the line up
But isn’t it exactly the opposite? They admit to utilising AI tools (which don’t equal “slopgen”), which means they care more about trust and honesty, than the line going up, no?
And this is all extremely confusing to me specifically in the context of what Larian said - yes, they use AI tools, but they don’t use them for the games themselves (like, I don’t know, writing lines, or generating textures), they use them to speed up the menial tasks and give their artists more time to spend on making art. What’s wrong with that?
