| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI helped create character portraits and illustrations, which are in-game assets players see, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer says the AI art was reviewed, edited, and curated, and no AI content is generated live, suggesting limited supporting use. Only one game in 12 months, so no volume-release signal. Against: The developer claims curation and editing of all AI-assisted art, and only one game released, which points away from mass production. |
