Rayark Games has issued a definitive statement in response to the recent whirlwind of internet rumors suggesting the company’s usage of AI technology for artistic endeavors and significant artist layoffs. The company insists these claims are completely unsubstantiated.
In the statement, the company asserts, “Regarding the recent false rumors circulating on the internet concerning Rayark Games using AI technology in its artistic works and laying off a significant number of artists, we would like to clarify that these rumors are entirely false.”
Rayark Games found itself under scrutiny recently, following numerous online discussions and social media posts speculating about the company’s use of AI technology. Regrettably, some of this speculation was based on mistranslations of the company’s previous statements and inaccurate reports according to Rayark.
To prevent further misinformation from spreading, Rayark took the step to dispel the rumors. The company emphasized its commitment to creativity and artistic expression, explaining that their artists are consistently encouraged to enhance their abilities and display their skills. This dedication to artistic development not only boosts the creative output of the team but also ensures they deliver their best work to their gaming community.
Anticipating the potential influence of AI Generated Content (AIGC) on the industry, Rayark actively observes and studies the possible impacts of this technological advancement on the wider gaming landscape. In a world that changes rapidly, the company says that they continually experiment with tools and methodologies to remain at the forefront of these developments.
“Utilizing AI tools during the development process may gradually become a trend in the wider gaming industry,” Rayark’s statement reads. It goes on to highlight the company’s approach towards learning and feedback, particularly during this technological transition.
Contrary to the claims of artist layoffs, Rayark’s statement refutes this, stating, “During this period, in order to establish more efficient processes and achieve technological breakthroughs, we have not laid off any artists whatsoever.” Instead, the company says they have increased its recruitment efforts, particularly for members with AI expertise. This strategy is geared towards refining their development processes and preparing their team for the potential challenges presented by the upcoming AIGC era.
Rayark Games reassures its commitment to its player base and the production of high-quality IPs, expressing appreciation for the continued support and open discourse within its community.
