On August 28th, it was reported that one of the co-founders of miHoYo who had been missing for a long time, former chairman Cai Haoyu, posted on LinkedIn, stating that AIGC has completely transformed the gaming industry, and the future only requires time.
He also mentioned that in the future, there will only be two types of game developers: the top 0.0001% of geniuses leading elite teams to create unprecedented things, and 99% of amateur enthusiasts developing games that satisfy their own ideas. As for those transitioning from ordinary to professional game developers, he suggested considering a career change. In fact, as early as August last year, there were reports that Cai Haoyu would mobilize more resources in North America and invest more time personally researching AI.
It is worth mentioning that this is also the first time Cai Haoyu has spoken on social media in 8 years since his last appearance on Zhihu in 2016, using a personal account. This statement still reflects Cai Haoyu's past character of being "explosive," but this may also indicate that miHoYo has made some new breakthroughs in AIGC.
