As you use AI to simplify easy yet mundane tasks, like writing emails, you get increasingly dependent on it.

Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI' The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.
