That’s like saying you boycot Nestle but won’t stop using any of their subsidiary products unless you accidentally find out that a brand not named Nestle is actually owned by Nestle.
You had a bridge to sell to anyone with the naivete to believe it’s the only place AI was used. What about your naivity of believing that other games are not using AI, unless of course you stumble on the information about AI usage? Seems hypocritical to criticize others for giving the benefit of doubt while giving the benefit of doubt to all other developers simply because you don’t know any better?
How the fuck would I boycott a brand for being owned by Nestle before I find out that it’s owned by Nestle?
I don’t know if other games are using generative AI. Maybe they are. If I find out they are, I will not buy them. If I don’t find out that they are, how would I know that they’re using it? The fact that I’m not able to detect it 100% of the time doesn’t make me okay with it when I don’t know it’s there. What in any of my comments has made you think I have an “I don’t care as long as I don’t notice it” attitude???

Consumer research, look up the brands you don’t know before you buy them, the corps aren’t generally out here running shell companies to hide relationships.
Im not being snide and I don’t care about the rest of the argument with OP, this is the literal answer to that one question, that’s all.
No? I just don’t know that I should avoid a product if I don’t know about the ethical problems with it. That’s how boycotts work…
