"This time, sporting a bit of a new look in a recent interview, Kojima has said he sees AI as a boon that can help cut out what he describes as "tedious" tasks, helping developers to lower costs and produce games faster. In an interview with Wired Japan ( h/t Dexerto), Kojima described "a future where [he stays] one step ahead; creating together with AI,""
"Kojima presents an optimistic perspective on how the tech can be used, not necessarily to lead the creative projects, but rather to assist with mundane tasks to "boost efficiency." It's not the first time Kojima has opined on AI in the industry. Previously he described AI as potentially as significant a development for games as the shift from 2D to 3D."
Hideo Kojima sees artificial intelligence as a tool to eliminate tedious tasks, reduce development costs, and accelerate game production. Kojima envisions creating together with AI, describing a future where he stays one step ahead and referring to the technology as a friend. The stance frames AI as an assistant for mundane work to boost efficiency rather than as the primary creative lead. Previous comments compared AI’s industry impact to the shift from 2D to 3D and suggested AI could generate remakes and sequels. The optimistic view contrasts with concerns about copyright, labor replacement, and high energy consumption, and contrasts with Kojima's own games that portray AI antagonistically.
