I think you have misunderstood what I was trying to say. My main point was that many devs will not do it because they feel it is their brainchild, which it wouldn't be if they employed AI.

At some point, it becomes a business for every dev. It's a lot of work. And devs that can't make their games a business, sooner than later abandone them. That's why there are so many abandoned games here. This dev even has other people working for him, if I'm not in a wrong. And, after all... 'brainchild'? This game? I don't think the dev considers his 'brainchild' all the filling material in this game, all the dull conversations at breakfast or while watching television, all the childish and silly situations, or the vanilla sex scenes. Let's face it: at least half of this game could have been written by an AI, just with a few tweaks here and there from a writer. Probably way more.

Since I read your original statement as a general observation more than specifically pertaining to this game and answered in this vein: it certainly does not for every dev. The vast majority of devs don't even make $100 per month. That can only be a hobby with some nice trickle of money, but not a business.
While that certainly is an aspect, I would guess there are other points which are more important for the number of abandoned games. My personal guess is "people who completely underestimated the scope of a multi-year project, and possibly overestimated their own abilities when setting the scope of their game." Got no data to back that up though.
First again: I wasn't talking about this game specifically but games in general. Second: we will have to agree to disagree on the merits of those small discussions, I think many of them add flavor and life to the world. Even the ones where you have three options which change nothing but two lines of dialogue.
But more importantly: yes, many people are proud of their work, even if better works are easily available. It is their song, even if only five friends will ever listen to it, their painting, even if any schoolchild can paint at that level if only it takes the time, or here: their game. This obviously is not true for all devs, but I am willing to bet that many will shy away from using AI for that reason.
That being said: cleverly using AI isn't bad either as such. It is, after all, just a tool. It depends on what you make with it. And with LLMs or AI graphics or music, working to get the right prompt is an art in itself. Yes, we are swamped with AI games made without love or care, but you can use it properly.
I feel that way too, but the dev has just run a poll in his Patreon about minigames, and unfortunately they seem to be popular, so we are likely to see more of them.

It's indeed a bit disappointing that the main story hasn't progressed much lately, but at least my 3 favorite girls are the ones getting most of the side content so I can't complain too much when a game provides monthly updates even though the content isn't what most would expect.
It was really interesting playing the heist and finding out that part of Lyriel's bratty attitude is part of elven culture's mating rituals, that elves choose a partner for life and that attitude is just a way to make sure the partner is interested. She loves the MC and is just too bratty to admit it, which is kinda funny.

AI is already used a lot in AVNs for (poorly done) translations to English for foreign devs.
Where it will be used a lot, in my opinion, will be by the AVN farms overseas that will be just trying to get people to buy cheap crap games on Steam or Itch or Oppaiman's platform.

I don't know why someone would even use ChatGPT for something like this. It's incredibly easy to write passable dialog, so it would probably take longer than just writing it yourself. AI art is a completely different matter, and I can understand why people would use an art generator, but in this case the assets are already created and we haven't seen any signs of AI art in the game.

As someone who uses a lot of GPT, it absolutely would take longer than writing it yourself, and be of markedly lower quality. AI is only useful in such a way under certain circumstances, like when you're being paid to write 2 articles a day and so you just have GPT write them in bulk.
Having GPT write the dialogue, only to then edit it, when it would be less effort and time to simply write the dialogue, is nonsensical. People do not do things that take more effort and cause worse results unless someone is either paying them or lying to them to make them believe otherwise.

Slap Rae's butt! Grope Naomi's boobs! Hug Lyriel! Steal Cait's cereal!
And watch a minute-long sex scene with Rowen!
All this in v0.7.16 Beta!

So, I just played through the latest update, eventually got all 11 scenes in the final maze. Some of them certainly seemed to imply that there would be new dream possibilities though, but I can't seem to use those. Is there something you need to do to unlock them?
