    Season 7, Episode 8: Games and AI (with Joost van Dreunen)

    On this week's episode of the podcast, I am joined by Joost van Dreunen, the CEO of Aldora, an adjunct professor at NYU, and the author of the SuperJoost Playlist blog as well as the book One Up. We dive into the profound impact of generative artificial intelligence on the video game industry, exploring the immediate market reactions to new tools and the long-term implications for creative production. Among other things, we discuss: How generative AI models like Google's Genie will actually transform the fundamental mechanics of interactive game enginesWhy public markets reacted so aggressively to experimental AI tools by devaluing established gaming and advertising stocksWhether the reduction of production costs through AI will lead to a surplus of mediocre content for consumersIf game companies are making a mistake by prioritizing technical metrics over the cultural and creative aspects of developmentWhat happens to the cost of gaming hardware when AI companies compete for the same high-end chipsets and resourcesHow a move toward smaller, local language models could eventually disrupt the institutional power of large technology corporationsWhen the focus will shift from simple cost efficiency to utilizing AI for creating genuinely new consumer demandThanks to the sponsors of this week’s episode of the Mobile Dev Memo podcast: ⁠⁠INCRMNTAL⁠⁠⁠.

    The Prosperous Society, Episode 1: The primacy of distribution

    The Prosperous Society is a podcast series by Mobile Dev Memo that articulates an AI Bull Thesis for the digital economy. It argues that the pervasive application of AI to the digital economy will be broadly economically expansionary, leading to increased individual prosperity, expanded consumer choice, and greater human agency. In Episode 1, I argue that AI production tools will catalyze dramatic growth in output, rendering content distribution as the primary binding constraint for commercial traction. This will accelerate growth in total digital advertising spend in support of product discovery and result in a proliferation of free software, more relevant ads, and higher levels of value offered to consumers through digital experiences.
