yes ea please kill off your whole company, good riddance.
We are entering the dark ages of AAA games. They are going to be shallow ugly, buggy and dumb.
Support indie devs.

Support the open source devs. Spring engine games!
Clearly the fix the AAAA games.
This is actually kind of interesting. This gamble is very likely to fail, EA could finally die, and its valuable IP sold off to companies that would actually make better use of them.
The only wrinkle in this is that Trump's son in law owns EA now, so if it does end up failing, they'll probably find a way to get US tax payers to bail them out.

More likely snatched up by VC to put them on (fuck) ICE or passed around to other AI companies until they're really good and dead.
fuck ea I should have stop buying years ago
Just so people know, you can ignore games by publisher in steam by searching their name in the store, clicking their page, then click the gear icon to ignore. EA who? Ubiwhat?
I've had EA on ignore for years (whenever they demanded we switch to Origin) and they still showed up on my front page during the last sale !
Ubishit.
They’re going to overuse and replace humans, but a measured use of AI in typically procedural content would be nice.
For those that don't know, Stability AI is already a zombie, even in the local ML community. SD3 was a flop, they shed all their devs/projects worth anything, and now with Qwen/Longcat SAI is beyond obsolete.
Apparently EA didn't get the message. They invested in a broken, burning company who's only decent results are free and old?
...Sounds about right.
FLUX.1 and WAN were already miles beyond Stable Diffusion a year ago. While America has been pushing capitalistic goals with LLMs, China has been releasing banger model after banger model, all as open-source.
Downside is it's China and comes with their own biases, both with image generation and politics within its text models. Fortunately, some of that can be re-trained back to normal, but the technology is moving so fast.
The industry finally embraces procedural textures, in the dumbest way possible.
I can't start boycotting a company that I've been boycotting for well over a decade.
Last thing I bought from them was Mass Effect (only the first one) circa 2008 I think.
Carry on, sir.

This will suck so fucking hard
The tagline of everything EA has touched for years now.
I mean it's definitely gonna be entertaining, but I'll watch that embarrassment from afar.
Just look at skate. Now imagine that but somehow worse and even uglier

if isnt already bad enough that SAUDIA arabia and kushner owns it.
To be fair, it probably won’t suck any more than EA games have for the past… er… ten years?
Respawn still made some pretty fun games. But errr yea that's pretty much it.

EA is the world's shittiest game company. Just gutter trash all the way through.
"Making games with AI" sounds like hell… like this is what hell must be.
Sitting there prompting AI, getting shitty ass results, prompting it again and again until you eventually settle for slightly less shitty results. The frustration and the loss of agency… oh God, someone should make a psychological horror about this: a frustrated artist forced to ditch their skills and tools and use AI to bring their unique vision to life, and throughout the film you watch them descend deeper and deeper into madness and depression until they burn down a data center and laugh manically as it disintegrates around them.
Text generation is the least you can do. You can still fire up Photoshop and feed in a half-finished image. Diffusion turns whatever you have into whatever you describe. If it does decent scratches on metal, but won't put them exactly where you want, then select them and move them, and the robot will smooth it over.
The very first article I read about Stable Diffusion, three years ago, had the author doodling mountains and flipping a spaceship. All the image-to-video stuff demands you provide art, as an input. Prompts alone are just a tech demo gone feral.

This is not going to end well.
Sure, why not? Its up to gamers to dump them, and only time will tell how this will evolve.
It also comes to the point replacing employees with AI.
