Ehsan's Insight
Gaming AI is bifurcating: procedural content generation (already here and working) versus AI-native games (5+ years away). Unity and Unreal Engine's AI tools generate environments, textures, and NPC dialogue at 10x the speed of manual creation. One indie studio used AI to generate content that would have cost $2M to produce manually — for $15K in compute. The player experience was indistinguishable. On the other side, fully AI-native games where every interaction is generated in real-time are technically impressive demos but commercially unproven. The money right now is in AI-assisted game development, not AI-generated gameplay.
