Kovaze's Stance on AI
There has been some discussion recently around the use of AI on Kovaze, so we wanted to clarify our position from a development standpoint.
We remain committed to moving away from AI from all aspects of this site's development.
Recent examples include:
- Newer game releases, including Fashionista and Island, no longer use AI generated artwork.
- Kovazeβs code is written and maintained by real programmers on our administration team, and any freelancers we have paid for.
- All flames, borders and future cosmetic releases are animated/drawn by Sin, Brookie, and any volunteers
We recognise that members of the community may use AI themselves in different ways. It would not be realistic the usage of AI by our users, nor is that what this statement is intended to address. This is specifically Kovaze's position on how we develop and create the platform itself.
There are still some older AI generated images around Kovaze. Those assets were created in the past and we're still committed to replacing them. Kovaze is still a small independent site, so these changes will happen progressively. We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding while we continue improving the platform.
Lastly we'd like to thank you, our players, and the vast majority of you that have purchased from the website at some point. Your continued support is the reason we can continue to sustain the content needed for the webstie whilst committing to our AI-Zero goals. You are the reason that is possible. Thank you.
Also, Happy early birthday Kovaze! π©΅π #September27

Period I love this
It's time to ban the AI slop games idgaf
I donβt really understand the hard on for anti ai ?
Venom There are plenty of resources that document how damaging the excessive use of generative AI is on the environment, theres tons of new data centers that get built that then proceed to waste water and resources so people could make their cunty cappuccina ballerina photo for DNTM
SirVivor water is a renewable resource
Venom Clean fresh water is not unlimited sister.

SirVivor forgive me for not actually reading this Iβm in an arena c2
Venom Girl you are old enough to do one google search and educate yourself.
Yikes π¬
Venom From a developmental perspective, AI code is sloppy. If you've ever used an AI site, they're notorious for being laggy even just to scroll on the page. I wouldn't trust it to uphold things like cyber security, or even set up an entire server instance for me. Some website owners don't even know how their server was setup and wouldn't know what to do if something goes wrong. It may not always be obvious but the reason our website is rarely down, relatively fast and higly secure despite being a small independant site, is because you have someone with my level of experience and qualifications running it.
We love Kovaze
