14:10 Gen AI: Empowering the Creation of New Game Formats

  • Sebastian Park, Co-Founder/Venture Partner at Infinite Canvas | BITKRAFT

Gen AI’s true value lies in empowering the creation of new game formats that were previously unattainable. Recipe-based games that once needed hundreds of hours to develop are now able to write combinations seamlessly.

Gen AI also enables consumers to become creators of their own content, similar to how social networks ushered in a new era of UGC. By allowing game players to create specific customisations or to create content inside the game, the creator-consumer loop is strengthened, empowering social sharing.
