Nintendo: Will not use artificial intelligence in upcoming games
Nintendo's president said Tuesday that the company has confirmed that it will not include artificial intelligence-generating technology in its games due to intellectual property concerns.
Shuntaro Furukawa, Nintendo's president, said in a question-and-answer session with investors that while generative artificial intelligence had grown in popularity, the company had no immediate plans to use it in upcoming games. "We have decades of expertise in creating unique gaming experiences. While we remain flexible to adapt to technological advancements, our goal is to continue to deliver unique value that cannot be achieved with technology alone."
The company has aggressively pursued legal action to protect its intellectual property, suing entities for unauthorized use of its characters, trademark infringement and piracy.
