I imagine a future where the “high level” stuff in the environment is pre defined by a human (with or without assistance from AI), and then AI sort of fills in the blanks on the fly.
So for example, a game designer might tell the AI the floor is made of mud, but won’t tell the AI what it looks like if the player decides to dig a 10 ft hole in the mud, or how difficult it is to dig, or what the mud sounds like when thrown out of the hole, or what a certain NPC might say when thrown down the hole, etc.
