How is AI integrated into game development and what are its controversies?

AI is like a super-smart helper that makes games more fun and interesting.

In game development, AI helps characters in games think and act like people or animals. For example, when you play a video game and the bad guys chase you, they're using AI to figure out where you are and how to catch you, kind of like how your friend might follow you around on the playground if you're hiding.

AI can also help make games look more realistic. Imagine a robot in a game that moves smoothly and reacts when you hit it, that’s because AI is helping it learn from each action, just like how you get better at playing tag every time you play.

Sometimes, people get confused or even upset by AI. For example, if a game character does something unexpected or too easy, it might feel unfair, kind of like when your friend suddenly knows all the answers to your quiz without studying! This can lead to fun surprises or annoying arguments, depending on who you ask.
