After leaving Rockstar Games in 2020, Dan Houser started Absurd Ventures, a studio creating video games and other kinds of entertainment. They’ve already released a comic book series called American Caper and an audio drama, A Better Paradise. Houser has been giving interviews to promote his new book, and he’s also been sharing his thoughts on important issues in the gaming world, especially those involving artificial intelligence. Recently, Tim Sweeney, the CEO of Epic Games, sparked debate by suggesting that stores like Steam shouldn’t require labels on games made with AI. Meanwhile, the creators of the popular game Dispatch have argued that AI could never replicate the performance of their voice actors.
