Dead Space creator and former Striking Distance boss Glen Schofield is an advocate for AI use in game development and is not shy about it. During a keynote speech at Gamescom Asia x Thailand Games Show titled 'Ten Ways I Come Up with Ideas', Schofield championed generative AI as a brainstorming tool in game development, especially Midjourney.
During the discussion he described how he uses Midjourney to experiment with visual ideas in the pre-concept phase, and also how he uses generative AI chat to brainstorm. Schofield—who was speaking during the business-centric part of the convention—says AI's growth in gamedev is basically inevitable.
