Is Xbox endorsing use of generative AI to make games? A new memo written by leader Asha Sharma certainly seems to suggest so.

This really makes me feel like she has no idea what game development is like. I’m mean, I’ve never been on a game dev team but I have read at least one fucking book about it. Even I know it’s not the toil that slows down game development. It’s all the thought work; creating stories, unique environments, fun encounters, and even just the way the game feels to players. Oh, and then making all that work together, which AI fucking sucks at.
Oh, it’s lots of coding! But lots and lots of tweaking, fine tuning and so on.
AI doesn’t seem to know how to do that, it just blorbs out a functionality that isn’t that tweakable.
Scope creep.
