They made their money on the hype when the games were released way back. Make them available and people will buy them instead of pirating. But they'd rather lock things away to cause FOMO like you said. They keep thinking about short-term profit rather than long-term steady income.

Normally that's a good thing, but in a case like this exposure to something shocking or upsetting can make it less shocking or upsetting over time (obviously not in every case). So, if AI is being used for something like this and being reported on isn't it possible that people might slowly get desensitized to it over time?
Yes, but how is the AI making the images or videos? It has to be trained on SOMETHING.
So, regardless of direct harm or not, harm is done at some point in the process and it needs to be stopped before it slips and gets worse because people "get used to" it.
