I mean all the shitty mobile games for the past decade or so are very much human generated garbage. What's wrong about having AI doing the repetitive work and have human do the creative part? I mean I get it that you are worried the companies are going to use it wrong, but you can also agree there are good ways to use it yes? Or you are fundamentally against using AI entirely?
The problem with mobile games is that they are driven by marketing and investors rather than developers and designers, and those won't be removed from the picture by AI. If anything, it will be worse because there will be less people with creative passion to push back against the money-grubbing intent.
Creative passion? In mobile games? What are you on?
With games likes Monument Valley, The Room and 80 Days you can't really say that there is no creative passion there. If someone wanted to just make money they wouldn't become game developers and artists to begin with. There are much better options for that.
Maybe more good mobile games would exist if the whole market wasn't stuck on this trend of conditioning compulsion to game algorithms and exploit addicts. Seems like mobile games can either do that, or get buried by someone who does, because mobile users would rather play games for "free" and get tricked into spending $1,000 than pay $10 upfront.
