""So first off - there is not going to be any GenAI art in Divinity," Vincke wrote in response to a question on Reddit. Last month, in an interview with Bloomberg, Vincke stated that while they weren't using AI-generated assets in Divinity, the team was experimenting with AI tools "to explore ideas, flesh out PowerPoint presentations, develop concept art and write placeholder text.""
"Following some controversy, the developers at Baldur's Gate 3 creator Larian Studios have further clarified their use of generative AI. CEO Swen Vincke and other Larian developers held an AMA on Reddit where they answered users' questions about the team's next title, Divinity. They also fielded questions related to reports that the studio was using generative AI in its development process. His comments were immediately and fiercely criticized online by gamers, developers, and former Larian employees. In response, Vincke issued a statement clarifying that they were not using the tool to generate concept art, but as something artists could use to iterate on ideas faster."

Those comments drew fierce criticism from gamers, developers, and former employees. Vincke then specified that AI was not used to generate final concept art but served as a tool artists could use to iterate ideas faster. The AMA reiterated the studio's stance against AI-generated assets in Divinity's final release.
