Sony makes statement on AI usage, clarifies usage

Once people see the benefits it will be fine.

What's the worst that can happen, we all die. It's going to happen at some point anyway 😂 might as well have some good games on the way.

AI has been here for years yet even ND cannot even release a proper demo because it will take "4 months of work". Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that that whole point of AI to said thing in a shorter time frame? It's like these guys haven't changed their development pipeline since the PS3 era.
 
I'm constantly having to course correct AI in my projects. I don't have a problem with it though. What used to take months/years now takes days/weeks. That is the kind of efficiency that video games really need to embrace.
Agree on that. I also have vibecoded many automatization tools for internal use in our company, which have saved or will save us at least hundreds of thousands on license fees alone. Really nothing critical and nothing that will ever be exposed to the WAN, but way more customized and intuitive than what we have been using before. No way AI is ever going away. AI companies, yes, but not AI.
 
Game developers should not be allowed to use high-level programming languages such as C++ or even C. No IDEs either. No 3D modelling tools. Every vertex of the geometry needs to be typed manually as a series of numbers without any visual feedback, otherwise the result is not the work of a human artist.
 
What a shocker Sony Group Corporation likes efficiency, productivity, and making money. I thought they were just some hippy artists collective.
 
There are still developers out there that think using a game engine to develop your game is cheating. Just thought I'd throw that in there.

AI is just a tool, if it helps development, decreases Dev time, and delivers better results then why not? I think it's even more important for indie development with very small teams as it will allow for much better quality indie games.

I get it from a moral standpoint if it costs jobs of course, that would be bad, that's not just a game industry issue though.
