because I don't like ai? ai steals content from actually talented artists and writers to regurgitate slop, not caring about actual quality and only caring about profit. I don't want a pokemon game where every single character is just an ai. that'll show me that gamefreak doesn't care about the employees that write the game or the actual quality of the story, and nothing turns me off from a piece of media more than knowing that the people making it just don't care.
on the silent protagonist thing, if there has to be a silent protagonist, they have to give you the ability to customize every single part of them, not just hair style.
AI doesn't always steal from other people's work, it depends on what they're using as source material. Quick lesson on how AI works, basically it takes in a large amount of training data (and that data can take different forms based on what you're trying to use the A.I. for, in the case of creative works it's usually a ton of images, stories, or whatever medium you're working with) and you teach it to find patterns so it can calculate an output by itself. The controversy behind AI in creative works is that they're using other people's work as that training data (which has implications for copyright, compensation, and consent among other things). For this purpose? I don't think they can do that. They'd be using AI to train unique characters, could they really use other people's work to train their own AI models? Considering the characters would need to act at least slightly differently from other existing characters, I'm not entirely sure that they could input dialogue from characters they don't own to generate the dialogue here, they'd need to react in a unique way from those other characters. So I don't think the issues you're pointing to would apply in this case.
