Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has said the company would rather go in a “different direction” than the rest of the video game industry when it comes to AI.
Generative AI is one of the hottest topics in the creative industries right now and a burning issue within video game development itself. Apart from ethical and copyright issues, labor unions have expressed concern about the potential for generative AI to replace jobs, and video game performers have called for increased protections against its use.
Earlier this month, EA CEO Andrew Wilson said AI is "the very core of our business" — a comment IGN subsequently explored in more detail. But according to Miyamoto, Nintendo has a different outlook.
