I am developing a game, and I want some assets for it. i was thinking of drawing some assets and then ask the “AI” to generate xyz based on my drawing style.

I was also considering just having a very specific prompt and using that to generate the assets I need.

I know there is a lot of skepticism about AI generated images, art etc. is there something I should know? Is it copyrighted? Can I use it as inspiration and make my own assets that are similar but not the same?

I am also just considering buying assets, but fear that it might not give me everything I need.

Any thoughts?

    I’m sure it depends on where you’re located and where you plan to sell the game.

    Generally, you CAN use AI to generate stuff with no trouble. Usually that stuff can’t be copyrighted unless you transform it in some way like having it generate a background and then you paint on top of it. The stores in which you sell it may require you to flag that you used AI, and some customers won’t want to buy it.
