he complains that if you use AI, people will boycott your product, but also

“You have to choose from either not using tools that can make you way more productive, and probably failing due to competition that does.”

the competition that would also be forced to disclose their AI usage and be boycotted?

The problem I see is that there is no way to prove the AI was used for the codebase. So unless someone from the team leaks, yeah, you can make an unfair competition.

but if you spend so long making a game, you likely would not want to risk it being removed for breaking the rules
