If you think you need AI to make your indie project a reality, you should be rescoping the project to something you can manage without AI, not making excuses for why it's okay to use it. There is no ethical use for LLMs or generative AI.
So, hey, @spryfox.bsky.social's title, Spirit Crossing, sadly does in fact use GenAI.
Dev's have confirmed as much in their Discord.
There is a Claude file in the game files for the playtest that started a conversation about it, and sadly, that will be the end of it for me.
I'm heartbroken...
