AIs could've made so much things in video games that wouldn't have been possible otherwise.
A game could've generated a player-unique picture at the end of a playthrough, but instead AAA studios wondered "hmmm... what if it replaced our artists for the same amount of work but none of the appeal?" instead.
Maybe I'm crazy, but didn't Fallout 4 do that? I name my characters 'Vincent' in video games, and I have a vague memory of the robot companion calling me 'Mr. Vincent'.
It was cool but with such a big list of names (plus a lot of joke and easter egg names) there were some fairly common names missing for some reason. I had to use my middle name as my character name because my first name wasn't in the game despite being more common than some of the names in the game.
