Kojima Productions' Death Stranding came out last night at The Game Awards in grand fashion and wouldn't you know it but Mads Mikkelsen (of Hannibal fame) made an appearance.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Death Stranding is coming to streaming in the form of a new animated series.
Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima wants AI to handle "tedious task" in order to cut down on development time and cost.
Cool, as long as no one is losing their job while already rich people make more money.
I feel that this is the position of every sensible person. However, we face two prominent issues:
1. There are nefarious actors (like Microsoft) who want to prohibit AI regulation. Some US states have some regulations in place, but it's very patchwork at best.
2. Without strict quality control and human review, AI is very likely to hallucinate in embarrassing ways.
I’m all in favor for faster developed games.. that’s been the Achilles heel this gen.. taking 5+ years for development. If it can help with building vast landscapes then let it be. A win win if it doesn’t endanger the jobs of current team. They can help in other areas.
I don't doubt kojima that he has good intentions and would use AI without compromising the creative process, but you know for sure other development will say the same and have AI make the whole game for them.
Yeah and whoever he works for or whatever AI models he chooses to use will train on his data and work to replace Kojima themselves.
I can't imagine any other creator in gaming that demands the salary size of Kojima.
What I wonder about, let’s say five years from now. Will an individual be able to make a triple A title using A.I…If so what would be the need for others? I hate to say it but eventually people will loose their jobs. Because I hear no talk about the ethics of using A.I. among the big companies.
Hmm, interesting.
so, this reduces the budget to 10%? hmm...
pretty cool.
Well, if it's based on GG's engine, that's certainly not a bad thing at all =) I'm interested in hearing more about this engine...
Guerrilla Games's engine current for Horizon: Zero Dawn is quite possibly the most impressive game engine I've seen so far, not just for open world games, but for games in general. The gorgeous environments & overall detail for that open world game is simply stunning. Aloy's model is remarkably detailed and beautiful as well.
YongYea is going to have a field day with this.
