Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Players Criticize Activision for 'AI Slop' Artwork
-
Fans of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 are expressing growing frustration with Activision, accusing the company of using low-quality AI-generated artwork for promotional materials. The term "AI slop" has been trending among players, describing what they see as uninspired and generic designs that fail to capture the spirit of the Black Ops franchise.
The controversy arose after fans dissected recent promotional images, pointing out inconsistencies, lack of detail, and generic elements commonly associated with AI-generated visuals. Many players feel that Activision’s approach diminishes the effort and artistry traditionally associated with the franchise.
Critics argue that Call of Duty deserves better, especially given its legacy and dedicated fan base. Some fans have called for Activision to return to working with skilled human artists to produce designs that resonate with the series’ gritty and intense aesthetic.
As the backlash gains momentum, Activision has yet to respond to the claims, leaving fans eager to see if the company will address the concerns ahead of the game’s launch. The incident highlights the ongoing debate about the use of AI in creative industries and its potential impact on quality and authenticity.
