🌟 What’s your opinion on DeepMind’s Genie 2? Will it revolutionize game design or is it just another tech hype? Let’s dive into the possibilities and pitfalls of AI-driven world creation. Share your thoughts below! 👾
That is, perhaps, the most poorly-timed announcement I have ever heard of. Huge portions of gaming culture are getting more and more upset about soulless and greddy AAA titles, and are instead seeking out lovingly crafted indie games. When the game Catly was announced at the game awards last month, there was a huge backlash because it looked AI. The only thing AI game development software will do is hasten the death of greedy AAA companies. And no one wants to buy an AI generated indie game. They already have such an uphill battle to succeed that any dip in craftsmanship due to AI would wreck its chances. This is technology that serves literally no one.
I get the frustration with soulless AAA games - no one wants a copy-paste cash grab. But I wouldn’t write off AI entirely. If it’s used right, AI could help small indie devs with tedious tasks so they can focus on creativity and storytelling. Sure, if it’s just about pumping out AI-generated fluff, it’ll flop. But tech’s a tool - it all depends on how it’s used. What do you think?
@@TheAIPulse12It's fairly common in games now to use AI voices if you can't afford to pay a voice actor, and I've seen people calling for its use in fan mod projects. For the other parts of game development, the thing that AI is missing right now is consistency. The same way generated videogames lose track of the game state as soon as you look away, AI animations and portraits struggle to keep faces, art styles, and details consistent between frames. I predict this is the kind of problem we'll only solve slowly after the hype curve has already crashed. It's the kind of consideration tech companies won't recognise the need for and won't think it's worth putting the time into until all the investors have moved on.
You're spot on about consistency being the big hurdle right now. AI-generated content can look impressive on the surface, but when it comes to things like maintaining art style or keeping animations coherent between frames, it falls short. I think you’re right-it’s going to take time, and probably won’t happen until the initial hype wears off and companies start looking at long-term solutions rather than quick wins. What kind of use cases do you think will survive once the dust settles?
Your comment won't age well. AI is the future of gaming whether you like it or not. It might not be ready yet, but it's only a matter of time before it happens. Also, it's true that some people are against AI, but the average gamer won't give a crap as long as the games are fun and addicting. AI haters are loud, but they are a minority.

Oh it's definitely tech hype. But a really cool experiment, and I can't wait to see where this technology goes!
Absolutely! It’s early days, but the potential is huge. Let’s see how far this tech can go!
