According to Epic CEO Tim Sweeney - game stores don't need an AI label as it will be everywhere

With the increasing amount of games using AI, Epic Game's Tim Sweeney believes the AI messages on stores like Steam make no sense.

@gamingonlinux I would be fine with a "No AI" label, so I can only consider buying games with that label 🤷🏻‍♂️

@j_bertolotti @gamingonlinux does this count as "malicious compliance"?

@ozone89
Is it malicious compliance when it is working exactly as intended?

@gamingonlinux Tim Sweeney continues to be a toad.  It's not shocking he'd be all in on AI when Epic makes all of their money essentially plagiarizing whatever games are popular at the time.

@Rusty @gamingonlinux Epic makes money on UE, not on games.

@realwaaagh @gamingonlinux Fortnite averages around $5 billion in revenue annually while Unreal Engine averages around $200 million.  I'm sure that figure doesn't encompass the entire revenue from UE assets and everything, but c'mon, Epic makes a huge percentage of their profits from Fortnite.

I hate "AI" notion because it's useless and is used for deceptive ends. Since 1970s people did "AI" by doing robotics, expert systems or even Lisp. By arbitrarily attaching it now to chatbots too they make things only more confusing.

@gamingonlinux well, it won't be in any Puppygames, whatever he thinks

@gamingonlinux I already don't use the Epic Games Store, why does he need to give me even more reason to still not use it.
Show threadAndroidUserCuNov 27
@gamingonlinux of course we need it, it's the difference in having your time wasted and (maybe) love that game, because the latter was a person thinking, with (maybe) new ideas
Show threadRealWaaaghNov 27
@gamingonlinux he’s right. Every game in two, three years claiming no use of AI will be a straight lie.

@gamingonlinux I was talking with some people today about how horrible the Xbox app is... then the topic changed to how also horrible is Epic Games Store.

So yeah, makes sense.
