Generative AI and IFComp

[vivdunstan]

IFComp have today added new questions that authors must answer about any use of AI generated content in their works for the imminent competition. I was very pleased to be able to tick the “no AI” option for my game. Not even for the cover art, which I did myself. I am not at all a fan of the use of AI in creative fields like this, whether for text content or art. The human cost to creatives working for a living in these areas is too great, as is the environmental cost of running generative AI queries.
