Two things to say here. First, an AI might be great for some things but we are a very long way from AI having an artistic vision, let alone understand why games are fun, how to create new mechanics, innovate, and come up with a unique art style. Second, you assume players know what they want to play so they can prompt it. You also assume this in a broader sense on all "personalized content". I think that the value of totally AI created media is completely unproven - if you only get what you can describe, it's going to a boring time. We like content envisioned by other people. For an AI to actually create a meaningful, full length game, movie or series - we might be decades away if this is even possible without AGI. Tl;dr: learn programming.

Disagree, it might be 2 years away. You can give a prompt to a game dev team and they'll create a unique art style game that you like, so your argument that users don't know what they want is useless. ChatGPT came out a bit more than 1 year. Now we have 60 second highly realistic and creative videos generated. Movies aren't that far out. Games aren't either.

  There is no way we are two years away from an AI creating a meaningful movie or videogame without humans being part of this process. Sora is very cool and definitely shows progress but it is still far from what's needed for a story where people interact with each other or the environment.

    Yeah Sora is honestly just a party trick.

    You sound like the Dota o player that was beaten by AI in 1v1, but claimed that AI will never beat him in 5v5 bcs in his eyes, team play requires a sophistication that he can't see AI to ever perform. Of course he's wrong. It was incredibly hard to think an AI would beat someone in 1v1. Yet, they did it. There's no reason to believe an AI won't beat them in 5v5, even though the problem seemes orthogonal to the problem of 1v1. 60 seconds is mind blowing during just 2 years. Progress will accelerate, 2 or 4 years might be enough to fill the remaining gap.
