AI will be in "every single videogame" and your fridge, says former Blizzard president

Another day, another out-of-touch executive weighing in on subjects they know little about. Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra is never one to keep his thoughts to himself, and he's taken to social media to criticize Korean RPG, Crimson Desert. He's not taken umbrage with the dull quest design or struggling performance; instead Ybarra has strong thoughts about the game's use of generative AI. Unfortunately for him, his take that the developers at Pearl Abyss should "man up" and stop apologizing for using the technology is the exact opposite of how the general public feels.
