Part of the conversation: AI, games and creative work

@nikitabier (14.0K likes, 959.6K views) says the most expensive game of all time, at $2B, arrived the same month AI models became capable of comparable experiences, calling it the swan song for the Big Studio Era. @benjitaylor (7.4K likes) says he sees no compelling reason to think taste is a permanent boundary for LLMs. @anvisha (3.4K likes) launches Voyager, an open harness for video, graphics and games. @aisearchio (4.2K likes) shares browser-playable AI recompiled games, not all tested.

Why it mattersThis is the highest-engagement thread, and it frames AI as a direct challenge to large studios and human taste.

Introducing Voyager: the open harness for S-tier video, graphics and games. The Codex for creative work. Most AI tools are built for coding. Voyager is designed to get the best creative results from models like Opus, Astra and DeepSeek. It comes with free graphics, music and video editing tools - or, it can drive Blender, Resolve, After Effects, Ableton and 100+ others. Everything in this thread was made with Voyager. A few of our favorites:
