Video game companies seem much more keen than gamers to add more generative AI to games. Now it turns out that Sony is experimenting with fully fledged AI-generated characters.
For its first test – or at least the first we've seen – Sony picked perhaps the most inappropriate subject: Ahoy from the Horizon series. The leaked video makes me wonder a) if Sony realises how bad the results look, and b) how did it fail to see the irony in using a character from a game franchise that's all about AI taking over and destroying humanity using predatory machines?
