Netflix Shifts Focus to AI in Gaming After Studio Closure
Netflix has announced plans to develop 'novel game experiences' using generative AI, despite recently closing its AAA game studio. Mike Verdu, now VP of 'GenAI for Games' at Netflix, revealed the initiative aims to enhance game development speed and creativity by placing AI as a supportive tool for creators. This move follows the departure of key industry talents, but Verdu emphasizes that the AI division has been in the works for some time, aiming to revolutionize player experiences.
