Following backlash from the community, Frontier Developments has revealed that generative AI will not be used in the scientist portraits for Jurassic World Evolution 3. As the debate surrounding generative AI in video games continues, many fans are glad to see the Jurassic World Evolution 3 developers pivot in a different direction.
As the next installment in the dinosaur management simulation series from Frontier Developments, Jurassic World Evolution 3 will add even more features for fans to take advantage of. Revealed during Summer Game Fest 2025, the game will allow players to raise families of dinosaurs. In addition, the creation tools are receiving significant improvements to help players build the exhibits of their dreams. While these new features have excited the community, some gamers were less enthused to learn that generative AI was used in the creation of scientist portraits. Unsurprisingly, this realization spurred controversy online.
Jurassic World Evolution 3: 9 Changes That Need To Be In The Game
Fans are hoping to see several changes in Jurassic World Evolution 3, from more dynamic dinosaur behavior to animals from other prehistoric eras.
It seems that Frontier Development has recognized the discontent of the community regarding the matter. In the replies to a popular Steam forum post criticizing the use of generative AI in the game, the developer has revealed that the team is changing course. According to the statement, Frontier Developments has “opted to remove the use of generative AI for scientist portraits within Jurassic World Evolution 3.” The developer reiterated this decision in a recent statement given to Game Watcher. In addition, the Steam page for the game no longer includes mention of generative AI usage.
Jurassic World Evolution 3 Fans Respond to Frontier Developments' Decision
This decision to remove the generative AI-created scientist portraits has been mostly praised by the community. In the Steam replies, many fans thanked the development team for listening to feedback and pivoting. It is worth noting that scientists will likely play a significant role in running a park in Jurassic World Evolution 3, making this change even more important to some fans. At the time of writing, it is unclear what the replacements for the generative AI portraits will look like.
As players wait to see how Frontier Developments replaces the generative AI in Jurassic World 3, fans only have a few more months to wait until they can play the game for themselves. The developer has revealed that the game will launch on October 21. Currently, there are Standard and Deluxe Editions of the Jurassic World Evolution 3 available, with the latter offering more family units, scenery items, and more.
Hopefully, this recent change by Frontier Developments will help make Jurassic World Evolution 3 a better experience for players. It is worth noting that many other companies have been commenting recently on the potential role of generative AI in game development. However, it remains to be seen to what extent generative AI will impact the industry down the road.
