There have been a lot of talks about Ai taking jobs in lots of industries. Do you think the same is happening in the gaming industry?
 
Anything concerning AI nowadays used to amaze me. It's taking much jobs from industries and I won't be shocked if it does the same in gaming industry.
 
I'm sure it will cost a few jobs, unless it's a good company using it to enhance a job.

Yeah, it will cost a few job. But if companies can use it to enhance their jobs, more people will still retain their jobs and salary.
 
AI is definitely making waves in the gaming industry right now and it's not replacing human developers entirely. AI is being used to automate tasks like testing and even content generation.

Well, you are right to an extent. I am just worried why a lot of these companies keep on sacking most of their employees.
 
AI can be used to handle task like bug fixing which will allow developers to focus on more complex and creative work. It's not really to take jobs entirely.

I understand your concern. But I see AI creating new opportunities for developers. You will also see the use of AI in various aspects of game development, from NPC behavior to narrative generation, which is so impressive.
 
Bugs and syntax errors are probably the most common feat to get over when making anything. With AI being able to detect and repair a bug in seconds, I could see the workforce chopped down drastically. That said, it could also bring in new talent for people who know AI and can create even better graphics for a more detailed or realistic game.

The ratio of jobs lost to gained with AI might be off... but there is going to be a pendulum swing with one career to another with AI.

That's a good side, but when you look at the statistics of people who have lost their jobs in the gaming industry recently, you will realise that Ai is really doing a thing or do you have any other thing that we should blame that on?

Only thing it could possibly create is a job to check the AI's programming.

So, in summary, it is a move that is going to shake the industry. No matter the angle where we have to look at it from.
 
AI is making jobs faster, but there is still a lot that needs to be done without AI, if you want unique aspects to your game. I don't think AI will eliminate jobs.
 
If you don't upgrade on your skills, AI replacing you on jobs will be very easy. Thousands of people have lost their jobs to AI for the past two years and it's going keep increasing.
 
I have seen the Devs use the AI in game development for tasks like level generation, animation, and testing. This is absolutely a game changer.

Yes, that's for sure a game changer in the gaming industry. The things AI can do goes a very long way in making the developers work easy.

What I do know is that, AI will not replace creativity-driven roles entirely, but it will certainly augment them.

AI is also helpful in some ways. For instance, the indie devs can definitely leverage AI tools to streamline development which is amazing.

Not at all. AI can never replace creativity-driven roles of humans. They can try their best but their best won't reach human's best.

If they are programmed to do so, I'm quite sure it's going to happen. The real question is when will that happen? Will it sooner or later?
 
AI is taking jobs everywhere and not just in the gaming industry. In fact, any field that's tech related, the workers there are vulnerable to AI taking their jobs.

You are not wrong at all. The teaching sector seems to be the only part that is not getting affected at all by what is going on, and it is as a result of how difficult it is to teach.

Are you involved directly or indirectly in the teaching or educational sector? If you are not, you can't be 100% sure AI isn't used there now.

If teachers are not using AI programs to teach, I'm quite sure that students will be using them to study because they can easily have access to it.

Not only that, create new jobs for game players.

There will be a need for people to beta test games made by AI to determine whether the interactions with NPCs feel unique, see if textures were rendered right, etc.

It'll make funner jobs, so to speak, as the coding and graphics will be done by prompting instead of designing.
 
Game developers are integrating AI in games and I believe people with AI skills are in a better position to get jobs in gaming industry. I do not see AI taking jobs, it is making easier to get jobs for those who have the skills

The core point is making sure that you upgraded on your knowledge in order to have some relevance to offer with AI in the picture. If you don't, you will be replaced.
 
I don’t think so. In fact I believe AI is helping developers to work more efficiently
 
I think AI will certainly take away jobs within gaming industry. Products would like to cut their costs, so I believe they will use AI extensively
 
Since this thread was made AI has definitely stepped into the gaming world. There are now games on Steam that were completely made by AI and no human was involved in making the game. That to me is not good, I prefer if a human or multiple people work on a game.
