LOL LOL AI literally has nothing to do with this. This isn’t the HAL 9000 computer here, these things are very primitive still.
No, the failure is with out-of-touch execs who are in it for the money rather than the art.
If anybody tried to shoehorn AI into game development, it would be those same out of touch execs!
Exactly. Maybe in 20 years or 50 years AI can do this. Now it’s basically just Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant levels of competence.
Seems like it has more to do with video games moving to a subscription basis. I’ve been trained not to buy PS5 exclusives after seeing everything I bought be added to a $10/month PS Plus offering.
