Friendslop du jour Big Walk is the latest in an unfortunately long series of games that have been confirmed to use generative AI in their production, developers House House clarifying their use of it in a statement to Aftermath (thanks!). House House state that “LLMs were used sparingly by House House to help work through difficult technical challenges and bugs”, and that “well under 0.1% of Big Walk’s code had anything to do with this usage”, but are quick to note that “generative AI was not used in any other context when making the game.”
Big Walk developer House House reveal genAI use in final stretch of development, only revealing it now as “it has become a matter of public interest”
