Embark Studios CEO and former EA guy Patrick Söderlund has been chatting about the usage of generative AI and machine learning in Arc Raiders, the forthcoming looter shooter with the neat motorbike helmets. He’s of the opinion that while generative AI tools at large are “pioneering” inventions that “should completely change how this industry functions”, “the human aspect is still essential”. Nonetheless, it’s patently obvious from Embark’s self-commentary in general that the real pioneering element of genAI technologies is cutting specific humans out of the picture, so that More Videogame May Be Made.
