#Interviews#AI#Game Development Luke Dicken has been researching AI technology for gaming for decades, and he joined us to share his perspective on the history of AI in games, modern generative AI, game development, production pipelines, player personalization, and why the industry's biggest opportunity doesn't lie in replacing human talent.
对AI表示担忧：CDPR联席CEO、Take-Two前大佬纷纷锐评-虎嗅网
一人成军OPC（One Person Company），一天搓几十个游戏……在科技飞速发展的时代，AI高效、大批量生成游戏，低门槛做游戏这事，似乎离现实越来越近。 但这对行业、市场来说，一定是好事吗？ 部分大厂高管，近期对外表达了自己的质疑。 在前不久的Edge Knowledge期刊中，CDPR（CD Projekt Red，《巫师》系列及《赛博朋克2077》开发商）的联席CEO MichałNowakowski就提到，未来AI生成游戏会越来越多，这是无可避免的现实，但他认为大众普遍低估了游戏制作的难度，AI时代尤其如此。他本人对于「AI大量生成原型后再筛选」的制作路径，无法完全认同： “我曾和一位刚创办工作室的人交流，他说‘我创办的是家基于AI的工作室，我一周内能做出40个原型；两周后可以从中选出最好的五款游戏；三周后就能发布一款游戏。’……也许这样做确实能成功，但做游戏是否真的该走这条路，我有些怀疑。” MichałNowakowski还谈到，游戏生产数量并非未来行业变革的关键，想法才是：...
Opinion: What's In A Game?
[In this technical, reprinted #altdevblogaday-opinion piece, AI game researcher Luke Dicken looks at what goes into actually playing a game, examining the process by comparing it to the challenges that participants face in the StarCraft AI Competition.] Have you ever stopped and thought about what it actually takes to play a game? I'm not talking about at a high-level like in an eSports league; I mean literally, just making something happen within this virtual world.
Board Talk – Justin Berenbaum for July 2014 | International Game Developers Association Board on WordPress.com
I recently joined the International Game Developers Association (IGDA) Board of Directors and as one of the rookie members of the board I came in with a few preconceived ideas. At a recent board meeting we had the opportunity to preview some of the Developer Survey results and it appears there are a lot of people with misconceptions similar to mine and many more. So, I wanted to take the opportunity to speak to some of these while they are fresh in my mind.

Board Talk – Tom Buscaglia for May 2014 | International Game Developers Association Board on WordPress.com
After almost 8 years on the IGDA Board of Directors, off and on, some call me a dedicated IGDA volunteer, others call me other things. As much as the IGDA often dazzles, baffles and even frustrates me, I must profess a deep abiding affection for the organization. Not because of the things it has accomplished. Or even its huge potential for good. It is because of its members.
Board Talk – Ed Fries for June 2014 | International Game Developers Association Board on WordPress.com
The question we board members get more than any other is “Why should I join the IGDA?” Why indeed? We can make the financial argument that the dozens of discounts for software and events will pay back your dues many times over throughout the year. We can appeal to your sense of “doing the right thing” for the industry by describing our many efforts in “advocacy” such as our recent public stands against copyright abuse in the King case.
Board Talk – Dustin Clingman for April 2014 | International Game Developers Association Board on WordPress.com
2014 marks my 15th year as a professional in the Game Industry. How time flies! Nearly my entire career, I’ve been a volunteer for IGDA. I was advised by the late Erick Wujcik that being a member of the (then) CGDA was the responsibility of all developers. He told me it was our obligation to “pay forward” the help we receive throughout our careers. I joined up and tried to help as much as I could to honor Erick’s advice and his memory.
On Recent Harassment of Game Developers | International Game Developers Association Board on WordPress.com
The IGDA Board of Directors has released the following statement: “Over the last several weeks, game developers and affiliates have been the subject of harassment and ‘doxxing’ attacks, including threats and posting of home addresses. While we support diverse viewpoints and healthy debate on the issues within our industry, we condemn personal attacks such as these which are not only morally reprehensible, but also illegal in many countries.
