    That’s because they didn’t think they were gonna get layed off before and that what they do is special therefore they’re safe. Now it’s “you’re not firing me! I’m quitting!”

      Its also just trash thats never needed. Coding games is based in variables not complicated enough to need AI in the first place just a lot of work and playtesting.

      The words of someone that has absolutely no idea what he's talking about.

        I can tell when someone who wants to talk about something they've never done personally and act like they have knowledge about something they've never done personally.

          There are many problems "AI" solves. It's an excellent tool ... for dynamic interfaces, or doing low-risk automation that has very dynamic inputs, or data analysis...

          What it's NOT good at is being creative or logical. It literally cannot do either of those things. Ever. Yet that's what every fucking brainless executive is trying to use it for...

          AI can already write scripts on par with or better than most of what hollywood shits out.

          Five Nights at Freddy's, Minecraft, Roblox, Repo, Lethal Company, all look and play like they were made by AI. It won't be long until users genuinely can't tell the difference.

          This is mostly due to the fact that audiences have no standards for the media that they consume.

              The market is going to be flooded with so much slop. It'll be incredibly difficult for regular game developers to get any sort of budget to compete. I'm not even against AI being used in games, just the inevitable lowest common denominator slop that we'll end up with

              We as consumers need to find a way to reward quality games

              ...flooded with so much more slop...

              Ftfy. I thought all the generic trophy farming and 'x game maker' games were slop enough. Its so difficult to wade through all rebadged same concepts ive given up on all the markets and just go through the reviews, and even those are bad enough.

                That version of 'ai' that solves stuff is usually rooted in more traditional computing methods and concepts of ai, than what theyre currently throwing money at, though.

                  Yeah, Charlie Kaufman is actually the one who mentioned AI being able to take the place of hollywood writers because they're all so shit and fans have no standards.

                    Not really. It's still just a pile of linear algebra. That's why it doesn't think or reason or actually understand what it's outputting.

                    That's why all this chasing by executives is a MASSIVE folly: The tech is literally incapable of doing what they think it can.

                      I meant 'traditional ai' as in brute force, postman or pruned hueristics trees. Those predated the linear algebra approach. The latter hasnt produced a decent chess bot yet, though they do produce pics of naked people.
