    I wouldn’t be surprised.

    The whole tech industry is very overtly hell bent on pushing through an ai controlled dystopia.

    What good would the current model of gaming be?

    Have a bunch of people work very hard on a game and all that work “loses it’s value” after a year or so. (In their eyes, shit’s gotta sell).

    When you can have ai just dream/hallucinate up a game and stream that instead? (It’s nowhere near that yet, but holy shit would they love it)

    Now you have an endless stream of stuff to sell that costs you zero manpower.

    Now the good peasants go work and can have half an hour of slop per day as a reward. And if they revolt, you just cut them off.

      Where this breaks down is where the AI tech is in this decade/century. Between running out of RAM and the fact these agents barely get marginally difficult tasks (programming wise) done, they won’t be outputting the slop AAA games are today. When you have people making games and most players are pissed at how bad they are and how expensive, we all know that AI built games will be way, way worse and stild as expensive.
