Yeah because they think that AI will make the games in the future.
Have you seen AI make games they’re terrible. They objectively work but they’re not good games because AI has no creativity.

I doubt they even care, VCs are there for investment returns, they don’t give a shit about anything else

Most of these VCs are funded by old boomers who will fall for any tech hype. LLMs are the most successful grift of all time.

the best I’ve seen are shitty clones of simple games like frogger or flappy bird - anything else is about as interactive as a slideshow or vaporware.
