Lies of P 2 at the Center of Controversy: Neowiz Seeks an 'AI Creator'

The sequel to Lies of P has officially entered full production, but a recent job posting by Neowiz has sparked debate among fans. The company is indeed looking for a professional titled AI Creator, specialized in the use of generative artificial intelligence tools applied to artistic production.

The announcement pertains to ROUND8 Studio, the team that developed the first chapter of the series. Among the required skills are the use of Midjourney and Stable Diffusion to create drafts of characters and environments, produce textures, support 3D modeling, conduct post-production, and train custom models based on technologies such as LoRA and ControlNet.

According to the job description, the goal is to make the artistic workflow more efficient, reducing the time needed for repetitive tasks and building a proprietary visual library. The new hire will also be required to monitor the evolution of generative tools and provide internal guidelines for their use by the studio's artists.

Oh, that's the creators of Lies of P specifically hiring an AI "artist" to work on their next game?

The community's reaction to the inclusion of an AI Creator within the Lies of P 2 team and Neowiz's response

In light of the community's reactions, Neowiz clarified that this position will not be directly involved in the development of the sequel to Lies of P. The AI Creator will be part of an independent research and artistic development team, tasked solely with supporting the preliminary phases of production through reference materials and internal experimentation.

The studio reiterated that AI-generated content will be used only to define the visual direction before the actual production begins. The company also emphasized that the models will be trained only on assets for which Neowiz and ROUND8 own all legal rights, thereby avoiding the use of unauthorized material.

Finally, Neowiz assured that every final element of the upcoming game will be created by experienced artists. This decision confirms an approach aimed at using artificial intelligence as an organizational and creative support tool.
