This morning, the news broke that Larian Studios, developer of Baldur's Gate 3 and the upcoming, just-announced Divinity, is apparently using generative AI behind the scenes. The backlash has been swift, and now Larian founder and game director Swen Vincke is responding to clarify his remarks.
I predict that this thing that is really great right now will become bad, so instead of enjoying it while it is good I’m just going to assume it will definitely go bad at some unknown time in the future and boycott it before it gets there so I can tell everyone I was right in the past.

So what, then I can still dislike the company lmao. What’s the point of hating something in advance?
Because then you don’t get cool points for going puts sunglasses on “I always knew those guys were evil! I’ve been hating them longer than you!”
Not really “in advance” if they’re openly discussing doing the thing that people are mad about right now, more like right on time
