There is NO SUCH THING as "just a tool". All tools have societal effects that are inevitable in different ways because we operate on basal instincts most of the time, or at least our capitalistic society has made us fairly deterministic.
It's not the same as a new instrument that is easier to play, because with an instrument, you have to determine entirely what comes out of it. With this "tool", you only determine part of the output, a skeleton, and a machine determines the basic musicality.
I 100% do not buy the accessibility argument. Of course, everyone plays that card. But the overall gross societal effects of AI are not worth it, even if it does help some people.
Imagine a new nuclear technology that cures all cancer, but simultaneously allows anyone to create an atomic bomb in their backyard. Would you think this worth it? We have to consider the costs and benefits, not just the benefits like most technophiles think.
You may create something with this tool for your game, but I certainly won't buy your game if AI has been used in its creation.
