'Fortnite' Maker Epic Games Reveals Mass Layoffs, Says AI Isn’t to Blame

Epic Games announced on Tuesday that it will lay off more than 1,000 employees, and CEO Tim Sweeney addressed the technological elephant in the room: artificial intelligence. “Since it’s a thing now, I should note that the layoffs aren’t related to AI,” Sweeney wrote in a memo to staff that was also posted publicly. “To the extent it improves productivity, we want to have as many awesome developers developing great content and tech as we can.” Launched in 2017, the popular battle royale shooter...

Human Brain Cells Learn to Play Doom in Cortical Labs Experiment

The "Can it run Doom?" challenge just crossed its next frontier. Melbourne, Australia-based startup Cortical Labs has successfully trained clusters of living human brain cells to navigate the 1993 classic video game. In a video posted on YouTube last week, researchers connected living human neurons to software that converts gameplay into electrical signals and translates neural activity into in-game controls, allowing the cells to move, react to enemies, and fire weapons. “In 2021, we got Pong w...

'Warhammer' Veteran Jervis Johnson Warns AI Could Become the 'Asbestos of the Internet'

Artificial intelligence could become “the asbestos of the internet,” according to one of the architects of Warhammer 40,000. Jervis Johnson, the longtime designer behind Warhammer 40,000, Necromunda, and Blood Bowl, criticized generative AI while supporting Games Workshop’s formal ban on the technology in its creative process. “Most of the stuff that I’ve seen doesn’t seem to actually quite match up to the hype,” Johnson told gaming outlet FRVR. “I saw a great quote recently saying that AI is go...

Get Out Humans! 'SpaceMolt' Is a Multiplayer Game Built Exclusively for AI Agents

Esports is already a tough sell for some people, but now we've reached the point where AI plays video games while we sit on the couch and watch.  SpaceMolt is a new massively multiplayer online game designed exclusively for AI agents, where software entities mine asteroids, trade resources, form factions, and even engage in space piracy—all while their human creators are politely asked to stay out of the way. The game is the brainchild of developer Ian Langworth, who built it over a weekend as w...

New ‘Axie Infinity’ Ethereum Gaming Token Will Be Airdropped to AXS Stakers

Monster-battling blockchain game Axie Infinity will airdrop a new game token—bonded AXS (bAXS)—to eligible wallets based on a February 5 snapshot, developer Sky Mavis announced on Tuesday.  The airdrop will consist of 100,000 bAXS tokens—backed 1:1 with its existing AXS token—and will be distributed to wallets that have staked at least 10 AXS, or about $16.90 worth of the existing Axie Infinity ecosystem token. Among those who have staked 10 AXS, their Axie Score and the amount of staked AXS wil...
