It's a different story for the more established studios with an existing following and previous titles. Game Oracle found that the use of AI by these studios resulted in a significant 40% to 60% drop in sales.

That's a huge difference. AI stigma seems to hit competent developers with a lot to lose the hardest, and I'm not sure that game studios are ready to accept it.

I agree, and it's very possible. I think the real limiter is that consoles don't have the RAM necessary to load the models to enable it. Maybe in the future, when models become more efficient in memory usage, or more likely, the RAM shortage is resolved.
