Elon Musk wants to make video games good again… using AI

With each passing day, it becomes increasingly clear that what was promised as “the great cultural revolution” has remained merely a refuge for the mediocre. I am talking, of course, about artificial intelligence, capable of creating texts without heart, images without soul, videos without naturalness, excerpts from a future that science fiction authors have been warning us about for years. What have we done? Of course, we have embraced drawings with six fingers, dislocated jaws, blurry faces, and unnatural movements. And, among all the people in the world, who would you say has decided to support AI as if it were the salvation of creativity? Of course, the king of the mediocre: Elon Musk.

Make video games garbage again

Imagine you are the richest person in the world. You are the right-hand of the President of the United States, own an aerospace company, the most well-known electric cars, and even your own social network that you have destroyed by mistreating it. What is the next step? Well, for Elon Musk, it’s video games. Does that mean he has gathered a group of people who will create the future of the industry over several years? Of course not: he has relied on an artificial intelligence company.

Musk has said on Twitter that he has created a video game studio that will use AI to “make video games good again.” Because it’s not like we’re literally drowning in pending games because most of them are excellent! Of course, by “good” he refers to his fanciful ideas of anti-woke power that he believes the silent majority shares (instead of the minority that shouts louder than it should).

The company in question is, of course, xAI (within Musk’s obsession with the letter X), which so far has brought Grok, the artificial intelligence of Twitter that literally no one is using. No one really knows what he means by “making games using AI” (all games in history have AI in some way, that’s what it’s about). Could it be that he’s still hurt from that time he was booed at a Valorant tournament and has decided to create his own games? His followers on Twitter think it’s the best idea ever. The rest of us just want this horrible dystopia to end once and for all.
