Cygames Says No Generative AI Used in Its Games and Products Just under a week after opening Cygames AI Studio in Japan , the Cygames proper released a statement worldwide on social media accounts stating no generative AI is in its games, anime series , or products. However, the announcement also said the company “won’t implement generative AI into our products without prior notice.” This means the notice, while expressing appreciation for human work and apologize for not initially addressing concerns, doesn’t include a commitment to avoiding AI in things like its games and anime series completely. When Cygames AI Studio first came up, the site noted it would be a subsidiary. It claimed that part of the company would make its own model for game services and tools. That announcement also included a number of job listings.

We sincerely apologize for the concern we’ve caused. “We would like to take this opportunity to state that art produced from generative AI isn’t used in our products. Furthermore, we won’t implement generative AI into our products without prior notice. We hold in the highest regard those who love games, as well as the dignity, passion, and heart of the creators and artists who act as the architects of gaming culture. The art for all current Cygames games and other products is crafted from the technical know-how and manual work of our many staff members. “Once again, we deeply apologize for causing our beloved fans much grief and anxiety. We at Cygames will continue to honor creators, as well as champion the free expression of people, and, in doing so, will continue to strive to be the best in entertainment.
