Whenever a company retracts something by saying it was put there by mistake, it means they were too ashamed to admit they wanted it there in the first place. I'd respect them more if they simply admitted they wanted to make or save more money by doing the unpopular thing. At least that way they're not insulting anyone's intelligence.
It could be. But if it was a mistake, what are they going to say? That it was intentional? Companies have a lot of people and management often doesn't always get a clear idea of who did what and how.
Then that's the fault of management. They're supposed to be responsible for their team. That's why they get paid the big bucks!
They should take responsibility, apologize, and move on. Claiming it was a mistake is childish and insulting.
After feedback from our customer base we would like to state that we are still committed and will continue to stick with hiring human illustrators for artwork associated with the GOG brand, and put in safe guard to catch AI works that might accidentally enter the work flow.
Its not that difficult to communicate to the public. Pretty standard to clearly state how worries customers bring up will be solved if the intention is to not keep doing what customers are accusing them of intentionally doing.
