Legendary director Hideo Kojima has likened the rise of AI to the invention of smartphones, but questions whether the convenience that AI offers would lead us to becoming too spoiled.
In an interview with Nikkei Xtrend that's been translated by GamesRadar+, Kojima discusses how the rise of AI has been viewed negatively by the public. "When smartphones came out, everyone slated them," Kojima explains. "But now there are so many people who can't live without their smartphones. AI is like that. It's important to use technology in a way that will make us happy... I think there isn't any point in saying 'We shouldn't use AI' or 'AI is useless.' We can't go back. Smartphones were the same."
