r/GoldenSun

Long time lurker that comes in to check the sub every now and then for any morsel of news for Golden Sun. However, I noticed a lot of upvoted posts about recomps/decomps using AI.

Now, I get the hype, especially with how bad the Golden Sun drought has been the past decade or so. But why are we allowing this content based on how the community voted in https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldenSun/comments/1nbn02j/ai_generated_content_is_now_banned_on_rgoldensun/

As much as I want a recomp/decomp, I'm not a big fan of AI, so wanted to see why this gets an exception when AI art, videos, upscales, etc. gets removed but this type of content doesn't.

Edit: Based on all the downvotes I've been getting in responses, I guess I'm not with the times on this one. If r/GoldenSun allows this kind of AI content now, I wish you all the best, and may we eventually get a Golden Sun 4 or proper remakes of the original 3 games

Edit 2: Went through the thread and seeing one of the AI decomp/recomp "devs" admit to having no coding knowledge is a big concern I had when creating this thread. If the AI decomp/recomp aren't being human reviewed by coders, why should I trust the AI to not vibecode what it's translating from one coding language to another? What happens if it starts introducing glitches or exploits that can't be fixed since nobody understands the code the AI created? Is it really worth harming the environment for this situation?

Edit 3: Mods have spoken, AI decomps/recomps are here to stay despite prior community ruling against AI, wish y'all the best.
