> if I wanted a procedually generated world that just exist for no reason in particular, I'd walk outside..
I don't know why, but this comment reminded me of an experience I had a few years ago, when I started exercising outdoors. I rarely went outside prior to that and stayed in a relatively dark room.
One day I looked at the sky and thought: Wow, these clouds do look like the ones in video games, thinking of Horizon and Assassins Creed. This just pertaining the comment about the "procedurally generated" outside world.
While looking at the assets I also felt a bit of sadness. I was looking at the "Two-story brick house with red roof and fence." and was then thinking about how it reminded me of the three.js animation/keyframes example [0].
I asked myself if we will lose something very valuable. The three.js example was hand-crafted by persons, a real intention behind every choice made, while with Trellis it's just "poof, there it is", an amalgamation of all work found in the internet and possibly in games.
Some value will be lost through AI, but this makes handcrafted content even more valuable. The question is, if we will really value this enough for it to be sustainable for the artists.
