I'm not entirely down on the idea of them using AI, but in the year or so I've been following this I do see a strange lack of focus in the creator and I don't think AI will improve that.This is a bad take, AI Tech has the potential to really allow an enormous amount of expression and content generation.
Here, take a look at Microsoft's demo where they make the Mona Lisa sing and imagine what it could do if trained on S7's body of art, the Bruce Timm animated universe and a bunch of general DC animation.

It's not inconceivable to think that at some point every scene in this game could be convincingly fully animated in a style consistent with S7's art. So I don't begrudge them exploring the technology to do that.
That being said, yeah there are criticisms of the most recent update being off model, but I think that's a much more human problem of S7 doing a lot of Amazon content and having a hard time shifting back to non ridiculous proportions after that.
No clue if he/she/they have already done so but I think story boarding what they would like to do with the game and then formulating a plan on when / how to do those things would help dramatically.
Honestly I kind of think this game should have been 3 or 4 different games and the creator just got in over their head with ideas which caused road blocks that might not have happened if a clear vision existed for the creator.
Whatever, I'm just speculating/ranting. I think the persons art is solid, I like aspects of the game a lot and even the parts I don't love I think are decently well done, I just wish there was an idea of where the game is going in the long run. Maybe if AI speeds up production ( assuming they're telling the truth and haven't started using it yet) it'll help the creator better structure the game, maybe.
