Sure, but I'm gonna push back and go "so what"? That sort of thing is what haters do, especially in the notoriously toxic world of gaming.

"Some people expressed disappointment about a thing I think is silly" is literally the center square on the gamer outrage bingo card lol. Same with "someone made a list that I think is kind of stupid".

And again, so what? Why should you care? Again, if you feel that insecure about it, it's you and your work that's the problem, not the haters who are always going to exist. Have the courage of your own convictions or maybe admit that it isn't that strong of a conviction lol.

Pulling this victim-blaming sentence out of context to show how ridiculous it is.

Given this stance, I think GPs reasoning for not publicly bragging about using AI makes perfect sense.

Why paint a target on your back? Why acquiesce to "show us your AI" just to be mobbed by haters?

Fuck that, let them express their frustrations elsewhere.
