Is it legal to make a game with AI?

In general yes, it is legal to make a game using AI tools, but the copyright details are still unsettled, so a few cautions matter. Using AI to help write text, code, or art for your own original game is broadly fine, and many indie creators do it. The grey areas are that purely AI-generated work may not qualify for copyright protection in some places (like the US), meaning you might not be able to stop others copying it, and that you should avoid prompting AI to reproduce someone else's characters, art style, or trademarked material. Rules also vary by country and by each tool's terms of use. To stay safe, use AI as an assistant on original work, review what it produces, and check the tool's license. The AI Companion is built for original branching stories.
