  • An excerpt:

    AI-driven game mechanics excite board game enthusiasts, opening doors to more immersive and realistic gameplay. By delegating behind-the-scenes decision-making to AI algorithms, players can focus on the action unfolding before them rather than getting bogged down by complex behavior cards or rule sheets.

    While the promise of AI in board games holds immense potential for enhancing entertainment value, some cautious voices raise concerns about the potential impact on creative workers. Drawing parallels with the entertainment industry’s experimentation with AI-written scripts amid labor strikes, some fear that an AI-driven approach could lead to unemployment and obscurity for board game designers. Having previously flirted with the tech trend of NFTs, Hasbro is not immune to the allure of Silicon Valley’s latest golden geese, including Kickstarter and blockchain.
