  • It depends on your jurisdiction, distribution platform, and the AI you use.

    In the US and distributing on Steam you can use AI assets, but you do need to indicate your use of AI.

    Keep a couple of things in mind though:

    • Your future customers may not appreciate that you used AI and you will get downvoted reviews solely because you opted for AI
    • You’ll likely have a better result making as much as you can yourself and using AI to fill in the gaps (i.e. if you have an interior scene, make the models and lay stuff out and maybe only use AI for a picture hanging on the wall or a coach fabric material–things that are inconsequential to the actual game play).

    Overall, I’d say if the supplemental use of AI during development is the difference between you finishing and publishing a game and you not, then sure–go ahead and use it, but make clear to prospective buyers how it was used and be prepared for blowback.
