Crystal Dynamics used “AI-assisted tools” while developing the Tomb Raider reboot.
According to the Steam page for Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis:
AI-assisted tools were used during development to support some early exploration and temporary development content. Any AI-assisted assets were either replaced or refined by humans in order to maintain the creative and artistic vision of the development team.
Crystal Dynamics tells Eurogamer that “we leverage AI tools to help our teams iterate on ideas faster and more efficiently, while ensuring that all finished content in the final product is human-crafted.”
