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.
I didn’t say anything about not enjoying it or boycotting it. I said that the more money Larian makes the more likely that they’ll turn into every other profitable company where making money becomes the only point. I don’t know why you and the other replies think I said something I clearly didn’t.

Sounds logical.
