    AI in Game Design | Reducing employment | UBI in the transition

    John Blackman and Erik Bethke discuss how incorporating AI into the workflows of game development and design are going to massively improve and transform the industry, reduce employment and likely require some form of UBI to transition to a new form of work. This isn't strictly centered around the gaming industry, but we use that as a sample. We also go into how this will impact other industries like real estate and how the economy is going to have to react to these transformative technologies. If we were to design the game of work, what would we optimize for?
