Dragon Quest Creator Has a New Game, but It's AI-Generated

While it resulted in some backlash, Horii expressed how impressed he was with the tool and praised AI for significantly reducing development time and increasing efficiency. Square Enix has been particularly open about increasing its AI usage to improve company efficiency. It wants to hand over the majority of quality assurance and troubleshooting tasks to AI .
