As I mentioned, they use established tools in the decomp event to check 1-to-1 replication already, and that's how they get their progress reports. getting to 100% means that this tool has checked every single function in the game versus their decomp and everything outputs exactly how the game does. regardless of AI use, that means this decomp is 100% complete, and the next step is for folks to take this and build recomps/mods/remakes with this(hopefully without AI) the difference with decompilation and recomps is that decompilation mostly uses AI to again, pinpoint things quicker and find what they need to replicate. It's an entirely different situation than using GenAI to generate NEW code to build recomps, which is what we DONT want in this case

Just finished the first boss of Dark Road.

This is true, I'm sure it'll be revealed sooner or later, but if it does work, then like Limen said, it'll blow open the doors for 358 modding

I think I saw a similar statement as well, which in that context, isn't the worst thing, but I'm still cautious.

Even if it ends up with a bunch of vibe codes, it's at least a step further than where it was before

Most important thing is if it works so I guess we will find out soon

And AI peeps are quick to mask AI use anyway

I could be wrong though

I believe they put out a thing saying it was used to search through the code and isolate things but not for anything major?

See, it's this kind of mentality that we need from more directors who want to make movies based off games. Del Toro knows what's up, and I respect that

Sony universe you say

They would never give me Ben Riley in a meaningful way .... 😔

Yeah right lol

I did check the GitHub page and Claude was marked as a contributor on the project. How much it was involved, I'm not sure

the thing with decompilation is that it's just trying to replicate 1-to-1 functions in a different language. there are tools that help you check that, so I'm pretty confident in this being a 100% decomp, AI or not. now, it's up to someone without AI to take that and make it playable again on PC and/or whatever else they decide, and that's the part that gets messy when AI is involved like you said, with things running into many mistakes

It depends on how much of it was decompiled by AI, if it was purely AI, it runs the risk of errors and mistakes that most "vibe-coded" projects have, even decomps. If this was ran alongside humans and was checked over and human verified, less of an issue as long as what was decompiled was proofread. It's a very grey area and truthfully I am not 100% confident in the depths of use. I don't want to make AI out to be the Boogeyman, but anything used with AI needs to be examined a little more closely

Was actually about to share that. Haha 😄

Wouldn't this be an ok usage of AI?

I'm worried about this since it did use AI to help decompile the code. Fingers crossed it'll be good, but I am weary

Don't worry, daz: they'll be sure to add a dragon waaaaay* off in the distance, and *then it'll be final 😌
