Regardless of AI, Heroic is a much better alternative unless you need some niche integration that Lutris provides. The Lutris developer is super stubborn about the most strange stuff, like absolutely refusing to upgrade the runtime of the flatpak because of some obscure controller regression. He'd rather see poor performance with super old mesa libraries and poor security for the majority.
But yeah, the heavy AI usage just makes me even more hesitant to use or recommend Lutris.
