But it hasn’t all been good news. Some of the game’s cute monsters’ uncanny resemblances to Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> have had players crying foul<\/a>, with many saying designs were copied and others claiming they’ve been created using AI.<\/p>
Takuro Mizobe, CEO of Palworld<\/a> <\/em>maker Pocketpair, spoke out against some of the controversy on Twitter this morning. Translated from Japanese, the post<\/a> makes it clear he’s not happy.<\/p>
Fans have called out Mizobe’s past comments<\/a> about AI and his enthusiasm for it, but there’s currently no proof<\/a> of Palworld<\/em> using AI art to create the game. Earlier this week, he said the majority of Palworld’s <\/em>100-plus characters were designed by a single “new graduate” on a team of self-proclaimed “amateurs.”<\/p>
