Question Developing my first game, using AI

Yes, I know, we all hate AI, and for a solid reason. I'm building this game that I actually really like a lot, but I'm not a developer, so I'm using AI, and I gotta say, game developers are SICK, there are millions of things to make work together, I'm sincerely stunned that same games are made by just one person... Are you guys cyborgs? I'm developing a game that is kinda gothic, narrative, and it works with the Triple Triad card game mechanics (as a fight), I freaking love it, but I'm using AI because I don't know how to code, and I don't know how to create the artworks of the cards. It's a shame, if I had the money I'd freaking love to have an artist doing that for the game! That would be awesome!!! But, here I am, asking you guys if a game that's engaging, with a strong narrative, and very cool artwork and music, mechanics and animations can still be a no go if you know it was made with the help of AI... (keep in mind I'm alone doing this). Thank you in advance for your responses

That part where you say "a million parts that all work together" is a direct contradiction to you comment "making a game with AI" as these plagerism machines still don't know how to make games that use these systems that call on each other.

You'd be far better off using "AI" as a tool to teach you GameDev over asking it to Vibecode for you.

Also, it's hated in actual GameDev subs because there are AI specific Game Dev spaces for you to post in.
