The wording of this is so stupid for a lot of reasons. Specifically with how ambiguous "AI" is. The ghosts in pacman are AI.
If they're talking about generating code bases, that's just not going to happen.
If they mean LLMs being used by programmers in code editors as a useful tool, like GitHub Copilot, then that's awesome and an increase in productivity.
Artists can use generative AI art for quick textures like repeating grass textures. An AI will not be able to match an art style or theme, it has a limited scope and can't be hand crafted like what's required in game with poly budgets.
Devs obviously love better tools. These save time and increase productivity.
I think you're on the money, but I have to disagree with one point: AI will absolutely be able to match an existing art style, if not now then very soon.
