Project Genie - Can AI Replace Game Development?

Google Genie 3 is a general-purpose world model. It uses simple text descriptions to generate photorealistic environments that can be explored in real-time. Google Deepmind

This is the beginning of AI Game Development era. Currently, games can be created through prompts. Even though it can only walk around, it can turn anything into a game. This is just the beginning.

Can It Replace Game Development?

It will definitely change the workflow of game development. If it does change the workflow, I will definitely miss unreal/godot/unity as a game engine.

Will I still use the engine?

I'm not someone who's afraid of change, even if it means leaving an engine I love. If using AI will simplify the workflow in game development, then of course I have to use it.🤔

What will happen to Unreal/Godot/Unity or other game engines?

I believe game engines will continue to be used and remain relevant. Think of it like using LibGDX in Java and Pygame in Python. Many people still use it even though there are many good game engines.

AI Adoption in Game Engine

There is another chance that current game engines will adopt a workflow for creating games using prompts. (It would be interesting if the prompt generated a game and source code that could be edited manually)

This is what I think🤣 Are you afraid of change?
