Pragmata's NY Looks AI-Generated

The concept of AI in art is not new, with examples dating back to the start of the millennium, such as Steven Spielberg's A.I. Artificial Intelligence. However, the current state of AI-generated art has been met with criticism, producing unimpressive facsimiles of familiar things. Despite this, the team behind Pragmata has considered AI's role in art, incorporating an AI-generated aesthetic into their game without actually using the technology. The game's fake New York environment is a prime example of this, with its appearance intentionally mimicking AI-generated art. This approach raises interesting questions about the intersection of art and technology, and how developers can use AI as inspiration without relying on it. As the gaming industry continues to evolve, it will be fascinating to see how Pragmata's innovative approach influences the use of AI in game development. With Pragmata's release on the horizon, players can expect a unique and thought-provoking experience that challenges traditional notions of art and technology.
