At GDC this week, Ubisoft sparked debate by showing off its new Ghostwriter tool, an AI designed to aid its writers in creating dialogue for in-game NPCs. The company says the tool was designed to mitigate "pain points" for its writing staff, but some industry writers fear it's just the first small step to having AI programs take over more and more of game development. We discuss the pros and cons of AI as it relates to video games and wonder what else could be made easier with the use of AI (perhaps this podcast...?).We'll also be discussing the YouTuber who bought every single Wii U and 3DS e-shop game ahead of the store closure, the news that Twitch's CEO is stepping down after 16 years (accompanied by mass layoffs), the controversy over KFC's Diablo 4 beta codes, and the impending video game-to-TV adaptation boom.Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the career of video game composer Nobuo Uematsu.We love our sponsors!
