It's definitely nice that AI can help speed up some chores of the indie development part that use to take so long before.
The sad part is that it's used to flood the current indie markets with slop, either with fully automated crap, or with attempts to steal whatever idea becomes viral to make a quick buck destroying a previously good marketplace. It's a shame that some areas of gamedev went from a place of passion, to a place full of grifters.

I am confident that people using AI to come up with unique and creative ideas will raise above all that slop eventually.
It's only a matter for them to embrace AI as well, learn to use it as a tool (and not a replacement), and then indie devs will thrive above the slop.
