Larian Studios Draws Harder Line On AI, Clarifies Stance In Reddit AMA
"Having said that, we continuously try to improve the speed with which we can try things out. The more iterations we can do, the better, in general, the gameplay is. We think GenAI can help with this, and so we're trying things out across departments. Our hope is that it can aid us to refine ideas faster, leading to a more focused development cycle, less waste,"
"There is not going to be any GenAI art in Divinity."
Larian Studios will not use generative AI for Divinity's concept art, ensuring clear provenance for creative assets. The studio previously experimented with AI tools for rapid iteration but chose to exclude genAI from concept-art to avoid disputes about art origin. AI experimentation may continue in other departments to speed prototyping, reduce waste, and refine ideas faster, with any AI models trained only on Larian-owned data or internally generated art. The decision follows industry controversies where awards were rescinded after AI-generated assets were discovered in acclaimed games, prompting stricter internal policies on asset creation.
