AI Will Boost Jobs And Reduce Game Production Costs - Top Games Developer Association Confirms

For a while now, we’ve been hearing so much negativity linked to the world of AI and how improper regulation can ultimately lead to human extinction.

But recently, a top games developer association was speaking to the BBC for an interview where the benefits of AI in the gaming sector were delineated.

The CEO for TIGA revealed how AI will not only boost jobs in the gaming industry but will help to lower costs related to game production and also enhance the speed at which games are produced.

It’s not something new to see games making use of AI technology. It’s been happening for so many years but this sudden trend of generative AI taking over all sectors had many concerned about the gaming industry and what was next. The most important query was linked to jobs and how many people would end up getting fired as a result of that.

Meanwhile, another top regulatory body that oversees the gaming world in the UK announced how it was monitoring the situation at a close glance. It does see many concerns related to the matter but there are more developments worth raving about than anything else.

The problem that might arise is related to legal matters linked to studios. Nevertheless, there is more optimism than worry over here. Many developments are arising and that’s something that people are celebrating, more than anything else.

As mentioned by one critic, when we got back to the 1980s, we saw plenty of players add coins to an arcade, and that would assist you in playing games like Pacman where you can connect dots through a screen.

Yes, things have become more and more advanced with time but when you come to think of it, the main principles don’t change.

Today, AI serves the benefits of getting swift access to millions of pages, scripts, creating pictures for games, and so much more that couldn’t be done as easily or quickly in the past than what’s being done today. So it would not be wrong to call it a true game changer in today’s modern day and age.

The goal now seems to make the most of this technology to create automated gaming projects and make studios a much more interactive and fun space. After all, when costs come down, gaming firms can focus more on bettering the overall user experience by allocating funds in the right spaces and that would give rise to more jobs in the industry.

Another statement by the co-founder of leading tech firm Charisma.ai revealed how adding more AI into games means providing producers with an innovative chance to better tell a story.

AI is designed to enable so many characters to better think and provide diligent responses depending on which story is getting played and what the role would be. Hence, it’s going to be so much more engaging and interactive.

Players who actually take on games as something more than a simple pass time would understand better how making the whole experience more worthwhile means enabling them to interact with characters in a natural manner. So it’s like telling a story through a game.

Was this possible in the past? Absolutely not, in fact, the thought of engaging in natural chats with a gaming character was the last thing on any player’s mind and it makes sense why.

So right now the task at large is how to make the experience more wholesome and interactive so that users come back for more.
