It seems that you do not need to worry about the generation of the generative AI (artificial intelligence) of its path in the survival game in open world Minecraft.
According to Ign,, Minecraft The director of the Vanilla game, Agnes Larsson, discussed the question of AI in the development of games during a recent event and was not too enthusiastic about the perspective. “Here for us, just like Minecraft, it’s creativity and creation,” they said.
“I think it is important that it makes us happy to create as humans. It’s a goal, [that] Makes life beautiful. So for us, we really want our teams that make our matches. »»
Minecraft Vanilla executive producer, Ingela Garneij, added that the “specific touch of: what is MinecraftWhat is it like? “Is an” additional quality “which” is really difficult to create by AI “. They even said that the developer had trouble working with distant teams and stressed the importance of human interactions and face to face.

The Developer of Minecraft Mojang is one of the Xbox game studios and finally belongs to Microsoft. Other Xbox game studios developers do not seem to share the same reservations concerning a generative AI. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6For example, is filled with assets that have been created with generative AI tools – a decision that has caused the games of the game community.
Earlier this year, Microsoft revealed a “revolutionary” generative AI model that could be used to “create a coherent and diverse gameplay”. Known as Project Muse, Xbox chief Phil Spencer said he could be used to help preserve old games.
Although generating AI seems exciting and becomes more and more of our lives, it poses a number of ethical and environmental concerns that seem difficult to solve. The decision to keep him away from Minecraft seems to go hand in hand with the accent put by the game on the exploration of a type of clearly human creativity.
