There's a big old debate going on around artificial intelligence right now, and it won't be going away any time soon. AI technology is advancing so quickly that it's becoming difficult to imagine a future where it doesn't play an important role in creative processes — and that could be especially true of game development. PlayStation veteran Shuhei Yoshida, who's currently Head of Independent Developer Initiative at the company, is fairly positive about the whole AI thing. In the future, AI could develop interesting animations, behaviours, even do debug for your program.”Indeed, the use of AI could have a drastic effect on the workload of developers — but could we get to a point where AI tech is putting people out of jobs? AI will change the nature of learning for game developers, but in the end development will be more efficient, and more beautiful things will be made by people.
