Does Dead Grid use AI-generated content?
Yes. The developers disclose AI-generated content on the game's Steam page:
This game was developed by a solo developer. With hundreds of items in the game, a small subset of icons were purchased from AI-generated packs. These icons were then individually hand-modified and adapted to the game's art style using Krita. Most of the artwork in the game was manually drawn.
