The threat of your game idea being taken isn't from AI, it's from people.
An AI at worst will add the tweet or whatever you put out into its model and in 6 months it'll get released in the new version where maybe one day it might influence an output.
A human at worst will sit there an deliberately make your idea for themselves and publish it before you can.
Well you got stuff like this:

Unfortunately I think Lucas Pope's concerns are valid.
So a person stole the idea and made it into a game?
Right. AI coding assistant help users move fast. If the user is a thief, that's on the thief. A competent developer of a thief, considering the game worked at all. AI alone accomplishes none of this.
I think something happened with Ridiculous Fishing pre-AI too. A really hasty clone gained a bunch of undue attention.
