i don't want to be in the games industry anymore

same hat but for autogenerated closed-captioning. as someone with hearing difficulties (and hearing aids!) they fail specifically at the point where I need them the most. actually useless.

It should be prohibited for gaming journalists to parrot anything an exec that has never been down in the trenches says

my last job was literally working on a voiceover / localization import tool. I was considering if I should make something similar for others to use (building from scratch, because corpo agreements from an investor meant I had to destroy everything on my own computer when I got laid off) but seeing this...

I guess it'd be useful to people who aren't in a company with C-level dorks spouting stuff like this? maybe?

The brazenness of this quote, along with him describing live service as some sort of exciting "technology shift" has just kind of had me at a loss for words all morning. In a just world, this guy should be facing a chorus of Boos and a storm of tomatoes being hurled at him.

Alternate headline: "Xbox Exec Shows His Entire Ass."

"instead of writing thousands of lines of scripting to get from A to B the AI just does something you have to try to debug later" cool, great, sounds like it definitely won't be a net drain on productivity even if it works exactly as described here.

Look forward to a new generation of incredibly shittily translated games I guess

Tbh that is basically how it has been most of the generations for most languages.

whys this guy look like the architect in the matrix

"to be honest i'm surprised they managed to get a nice picture of mr. tom stuart considering how far up his ass his head is" - they didn't, that's the AI output for "my shit sack boss in a suit with a waistline above the navel"
