A Brief History of AI and Gaming

Games have always been an ideal testing ground for artificial intelligence. Its unique responsiveness, constantly changing objectives, and real-time environment make it an ideal environment for advancing AI technology. Early AI development faced significant obstacles, requiring pre-set rules or simplified environments to operate. However, these limitations have given rise to creative solutions, and games have become the perfect stage for progress.

2015 was a pivotal moment: an AI agent mastered 49 Atari games solely through pixels and scores, achieving performance at the level of professional humans. This breakthrough proved that AI can learn naturally in complex environments, laying the foundation for today's AI revolution.

From arcade AI to autonomous agents: games have evolved from simple computer opponents to self-learning characters owned by players in the Web3 era.

How Web2 game companies currently use AI

Building on these foundations, leading gaming companies are implementing AI technology in innovative ways.

Roblox (announced in February 2023): By integrating generative AI, it has revolutionized user-generated content (UGC) in games, helping 58.8 million daily active users create 3D models and code through simple prompts.

Sony AI (announced in November 2019): Focuses on fundamental AI research to enhance Sony's gaming business.

King (active since 2017): Pioneered the use of AI in game development through the AI Lab, especially using game testing robots, reducing manual level adjustments in Candy Crush Saga by 95% and increasing development speed by 50%.

AI has already demonstrated its transformative value in games, reshaping the construction, gameplay, and experience of games. While Web2 giants continue to innovate, the encryption gaming field remains underdeveloped, providing enticing opportunities for AI-driven advancement.

In the following sections, we will explore some pioneering projects that are leading this transformation, combining AI and Web3 to redefine the future of gaming.

Conclusion

AI and Web3 are fundamentally reshaping the game landscape, bringing personalized experiences to players and enabling them to actively shape the virtual world. We are moving beyond basic AI capabilities and entering a fully autonomous environment, where each player's decisions will have an impact, transforming players from passive consumers to empowered participants.

Projects like AI Waifu and Today are not just entertainment platforms; they are evolving into social ecosystems, where AI-driven characters create deep personal connections and drive the economy owned by players. The integration of AI training through games, as seen in Genopets and AI Arena, further emphasizes this shift towards player-centered value creation.

Perhaps the most important thing is that the combination of AI and Web3 technology makes game development more convenient than ever before. Projects like GameGPT and Oasis demonstrate how AI tools can break through traditional creative barriers, allowing anyone to participate in building these new virtual worlds. This transformation, coupled with the rise of autonomous AI agents and players owning data, indicates that we are witnessing the early stages of a game revolution, where the boundaries between players, creators, and AI blur, forming a unified and dynamic ecosystem.
