For all the doom and gloom when it comes to AI in this interview the Baldur's Gate 3 developer gave reasonable and very pragmatic answers. AI will not replace humans, AI will not replace any human creativity, AI will only process mundane and repetitive tasks (cleaning audio, transferring animations, etc.) no one wants to do, which will free up human talent for actual creative work. This is a win-win and how AI should actually be used.
