Divinity & AI: What Fans Need to Know
-

Larian Studios is experimenting with generative AI—but don’t panic. According to CEO Swen Vincke:
AI is used for placeholders, PowerPoints, and early references
Final concept art and game content remain fully human-created
The goal is to boost efficiency, not replace artists
The gaming community is divided, but Vincke promises that Divinity will be “way better than Baldur’s Gate 3,” human creativity intact.

Efficiency tools are fine — replacement isn’t.
-
Early references ≠ finished art. Big difference.
-
Clear communication can calm a lot of unnecessary speculation.
