  • Kojima said in a Rolling Stone Brasil interview that he expects future remakes and sequels to be created by AI, though not as a replacement for human creativity.
  • Speaking at Gamescom Asia, Glen Schofield urged studios to train their teams on AI now, calling it the right investment as tools mature.
  • Schofield downplayed claims that generative AI steals art, citing common photobashing practices and saying creators should set their own rules as legal standards evolve.
