The father of the god game weighs in on AI use in the gaming industry

So we are pretending. This is the truth, Rob. We as the industry are pretending we’re not using AI, but the reality is, it’s almost impossible to code now without using AI. Almost impossible. I mean, the efforts you have to go to extract AI from line completion stuff and from generative stuff is very challenging. So everyone, every title that’s come out in the last year has been using that, but we’re still able to not tick the AI box. AI is going to be, when it’s sorted out and not producing AI slop, it is the most… This is very controversial. It is the most, the biggest advance in creativity for smaller studios, for medium studios and bigger studios. The biggest step forward in creativity."

Uh huh. Sure there guy who keeps overhyping things and never releasing what was promised.

    The guy has been trading on an earned reputation - Bullfrog was just next level at the time. Hell go buy the back catalog on GoG most of them will stand up, even now. Now admittedly whoever was also at Bullfrog at the time was obviously the poster child of delivering to wild specifications,because the dreams stayed big, but the delivery sucked from Lionhead onwards. If you are frustrated imagine how Peter feels - maybe, maybe one day AI will be able to do the difficult bit of turning his fevered scribblings back into pure gold. But that day is not today.
