Man I know bethesda has some serious jank but I wonder how bad it would be if they tried this and got ai to do it for them

As much as I hate the ongoing “AI” scam, and as many hours as I've wasted on Bethesda's games (or on modding them), in Bethesda's case (especially modern Bethesda) I actually believe the slop machine might actually be an improvement.

At least the code for the unofficial patches will be in its training set, which is a start...

It would probably be equally bad. Current systems can't hold enough context in memory to manage the architecture of a system. Development is going to be piecemeal, and reimplement a bunch of stuff. Like if you had a new developer take over every week.

So individually each piece would probably be better, but overall it's going to be an even bigger spaghetti mess.
