Isn't that the AI hype in a nutshell? "It's all it does right now but if you add insert hopes and dreams it's going to revolutionize X".
I mean, human touch will play a role but I think the tech overall just nowhere near where it should be to make games. It would actually need to understand what it is doing because there needs to be some intentionality there. Something as simple as a counter going up when you kill an enemy, but I think even that goes beyond what current models are even remotely capable. They would be capable of imitating a counter for some timeframe but to actually keep track of it over a long gaming session? I have my doubts.
The article was little light on the details, but if the whole game is run on ai thats what is going to happen. But if AI is creating real code and the game it creates has real files that are saved on the computer, things like point counters are not anymore tied by the limits of AI's memory.
But i just dont see how AI in its current state could make large cohesive projects.
Also there is no such thing as artificial intellect. AI is just nice marketing word for something that tries to mimic what real AI would be.
It's not generating any code. You don't even get a game out of the model, you only get a video of what you played. It's like an AI video generator except you have control over the camera and character.
Wait, didn't someone already make exactly this but only for Minecraft?
Edit: yep, and it's already 2 years old: https://oasis-ai.org/
So its a glorified a procedural generator that does not save anything it makes?
What the fuck. Its like saying game devs are being replaced because people see dreams when they sleep.
That's a very good analogy. Yeah, this is stupid. What's even dumber than the concept itself, is freaking out over it and selling stocks. This technology should not intimidate anyone, it's impressive by some limited metrics, but it's not in any way effective at creating a video game.
