AI Transparency

How AI is used in the Today's Specials design process

AI Transparency

This project is part of an ongoing experiment about creativity and technology.

Where AI is Used

  • Brainstorming game mechanics and systems
  • Drafting and iterating on rules documentation
  • Exploring design problems and solutions
  • Organizing and structuring content

Where AI is NOT Used

  • Final creative decisions (all design choices are human-made)
  • Core vision and design pillars
  • Playtesting and validation

The Process

This is a collaborative creative process - AI helps explore possibilities, but the designer makes all final calls about what belongs in the game. Every mechanic, every design decision, and every word in the final documentation is approved and often refined by a human designer.

AI serves as a thought partner and productivity tool, not as the creative director.
