Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.
Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

The amount of people I know who have been laid off from games industry jobs and are deciding to leave games entirely as a result is not only extremely saddening (of course), but also genuinely scary. We have lost legitimately thousands of years of knowledge and experience in the last four years.

SO! I found the solution to appeal in an old renaissance book on architectural design:
"Beauty is the state where nothing can be added or removed from the design, except to its detriment.”
Which is pretty much what I remember hearing Tyler Edlin saying as well - we just can't say beauty anymore
