EA studios 'hunger' to start using generative AI 'as quickly as possible,' says CEO

As if EA didn't already make bland, derivative games...

Mmm I love generic slop smoothed of any distinguishing features 😋
Because players are just dying for generative AI!!!!
- I unironically am; but I don't think EA is gonna use it the way I would actually like to see it used in a video game. They hear "I want AI dialogue" and will use AI to write (and probably code) the game, instead of having it generated real time so you can communicate with the NPCs as if they were actually there.
  
  The problem is that you can't really control what AI spits out. May fit perfectly into the story, or it may be immersion breaking nonsense that doesn't even fit into the narrative. What if a character suddenly makes a promise or tells you a key plotline point that it has just made up? I, for one, prefer games to be handcrafted to deliver a quality reliable experience instead of being a coinflip.
Don’t buy them

Alternative title: "The people I boss around totally want to use AI because it's really cool and it's the future, so we need it now and they're going to use it whether they want it or not", says the CEO that can't distinguish a Nintendo from a Playstation
If you thought Breakfast™ (especially with the Bacon™ DLC) was good, just wait for the sequels.
I quit giving EA money when they launched Origin. Been a long time.
Please, please, please just stop buying EA games!
