- Employees of Minecraft The Mojang developer has talked about the role of generative AI in the development of games in a recent event
- They did not seem too excited with technology and declared that Minecraft required a human touch
- It comes when other Microsoft studies begin to use more generative
It seems that you do not need to worry about the generative AI (artificial intelligence) advancing in the successful survival game of the open world Minecraft.
According to Ign, Minecraft The director of the Vanilla game, Agnes Larsson, discussed the theme of AI in the development of the game in a recent event and was not too excited about the prospect. “Here for us, like Minecraft it is creativity and creation,” they said.
“I think it is important that it makes us happy to create as humans. That is a purpose, [that] It makes life look beautiful. So, for us, we really want our teams to do our games. “
Minecraft Vanilla Executive Producer INGELA GARNEIJ added that the “specific touch of: what is MinecraftHow do you see? “It is an” extra quality “that” is really complicated to create through AI. “
“I want to say that creativity is … you need to meet as well as a person as a human to really understand the values and principles and the ecosystem,” Garneij continued. “Tradition, everything, is very massive. MinecraftIt’s a planet, it’s huge. “
Minecraft developer, Mojang, is part of Xbox Game Studios and is finally owned by Microsoft. Other Xbox game studies developers do not seem to share the same reservations with respect to generative AI. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6For example, it is full of assets that were created with generative tools of AI, a decision that caused a violent reaction within the game community.
Earlier this year, Microsoft revealed a “innovative” generative model that could be used to “create a consistent and diverse game.” Known as Project Muse, Xbox’s head, Phil Spencer, indicated that it could be used to help preserve ancient games.
Although the generative AI seems exciting and is becoming an increasingly largest part of our lives, it raises a series of ethical and environmental concerns that seem difficult to solve. The decision to keep it away from Minecraft It seems to go hand in hand with the game approach in exploring a clearly human type of creativity.
