Generative AI "art" is incredibly useful for small creators to prototype works. Whether that is storyboarding/previs or making a presentation to show investors. It allows those small creators to make something "understandable" while keeping budgets down during the early days/years of a project.
Once that work is ready to be shown to the public? All work must have an actual creator. Whether that is an asset pack you purchased because it is "close enough" or an artist that you contracted/hired.
But also? Studio Wildcard (the company behind Ark) is very established and have been making games for over a decade at this point. They should have artists on staff who are already familiar with the style and design bibles of the Ark universe.
I like the idea of mixed media with AI and hand drawn/painted, or acrylic pour painting. I also like the idea of using AI for lyrical inspiration, like the cut ups process. Where words are written on paper, and they are cut up and mixed together like David Bowie, Eno, Brion Gysin, and Burroughs.
