We already know that Square Enix intends to implement “aggressively” artificial intelligence (AI) in one form or another in its future titles, whose experiment without much success was to relaunch The Portopia Serial Murder Case. The next patient of artificial intelligence (AI) is Foamstarsthe exclusive PlayStation competitive shooter that will arrive with PS Plus next February.
In interview with VGCKosuke Okatani, productor de Foamstars, confirmed that they used art generated by artificial intelligence (AI) for certain assets, although they assured that the majority of the game is made by developers. Square Enix used the controversial Midjourney tool, which converts text commands into images, to create in-game album covers.
«We experimented with Midjourney using simple commands to produce abstract images. We liked what was created and used them as the final album covers that players see [sobre las pistas musicales]. This makes up only 0.01% of the game, or even less, but we ventured into it by creating these icons.
Midjourney is one of the artificial intelligence (AI) companies facing a lawsuit filed by thousands of artists. They claim that the different AI tools use their original works as training and directly copy intellectual property. Something completely true without having to go very far.
What will be Square Enix’s next step? Perhaps Final FantasAI
