But the footage also shows how AI generation will create unwanted additions or errors, which then must be identified and corrected in a further design pass by the (human) artist. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The design is king, AI can generate generic stuff all day, but that&#8217;s not what we&#8217;re doing here,&#8221; an Epic Games staff member says. &#8220;It just skips ahead in the timeline so [the artist] can focus on honing in on the design and crafting it exactly how he wants it to be.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The video&#8217;s publication follows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/fortnite-artist-responds-as-fans-claim-game-now-includes-examples-of-blatant-ai-artwork-including-a-nine-toed-character-in-a-hammock\">repeated questions from Fortnite fans over potential AI use for certain in-game assets<\/a> \u2014 such as a poster showing a nine-toed character in a hammock \u2014 that the company has previously kept quiet over answering.<\/p>\n<p>While the video makes clear that AI isn&#8217;t used for designing characters from the ground up, it also makes clear that generative AI use is now a part of the company&#8217;s workflow \u2014 and opens up the possibility that mistakes could still get missed within subsequent human checks.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"slideshow\" data-slug=\"we-build-lego-fortnite-battle-bus\" data-value=\"we-build-lego-fortnite-battle-bus\" data-type=\"slug\" data-caption=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>When designing concept art for in-game locations, it&#8217;s a similar process. Sketches are drawn by hand in Photoshop, then recreated in 3D via the commonly-used 3D modelling tool Blender. Images from here are then adapted within Photoshop using AI prompts to explore alternative takes, such as day or night versions of the same scene, or to add destruction from a meteor strike. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At every stage of the design, artists continue to polish and refine, but now teams can revise faster, so artists have more oppurtunities to explore,&#8221; Epic says. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All along the way there are continual reviews, before anything makes it into our games, and artists are careful to respect originality, track providence of their work, and ensure the finished product meets Epic&#8217;s high quality standards.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Epic Games is no stranger to AI technology, of course, having previously used generative speech technology to reproduce James Earl Jones&#8217; Darth Vader portrayal. But despite having the rights and approval of Disney, the character&#8217;s inclusion proved controversial, especially as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/ai-darth-vader-was-the-beginning-epic-reveals-plans-to-let-people-create-their-own-ai-npcs-in-fortnite\">players quickly began making Vader say things more aligned with the dark side of the Force<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/why-stop-at-ai-use-we-could-have-mandatory-disclosures-for-what-shampoo-brand-the-developer-uses-epic-boss-tim-sweeney-says-steam-should-ditch-its-ai-generated-content-disclosure\">Epic Games boss Tim Sweeney suggested that Valve should ditch Steam&#8217;s AI Generated Content Disclosure label for games<\/a>, as he believes AI use will become so ubiquitous it will make any warning redundant. &#8220;Why stop at AI use?&#8221; Sweeney wrote on social media. &#8220;We could have mandatory disclosures for what shampoo brand the developer uses. Customers deserve to know lol.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It doesn\u2019t matter any more,\u201d he continued. &#8220;The AI tag is relevant to art exhibits for authorship disclosure, and to digital content licensing marketplaces where buyers need to understand the rights situation. It makes no sense for game stores, where AI will be involved in nearly all future production.\u201d<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"divider\"><\/section>\n<p><em>Tom Phillips is IGN&#8217;s News Editor.
