Can Elon Musk’s xAI make an AI-generated game in a year? ‘He’s full of crap’, says Glen Schofield: ‘I want to actually say that to him’

Glen Schofield, former head of Striking Distance Studios, advocates for the integration of artificial intelligence in game development, particularly using Midjourney for brainstorming visual concepts. He expressed skepticism about the timeline for fully AI-generated games, criticizing Elon Musk's claim that xAI would produce one within a year. Schofield highlighted the importance of collaboration between AI companies and game developers to create effective tools. He acknowledged AI's potential in world-building and character creation but noted challenges in realistic 3D character movement. Schofield also showcased his traditional artwork and argued that the conversation around AI-generated art should focus on its potential rather than legalities. He believes AI's integration into game development is an inevitable evolution that requires careful consideration.
