Abstract
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have been extensively applied in various industries, including the gaming industry. The integration of different AI models into games has brought about a new era of game development, optimization, and overall gaming experience. This paper presents an overview of several AI algorithms that have been utilized in games, discussing their applications and providing predictions for the future of AI in gaming. It outlines how these algorithms have been incorporated into games to improve various aspects of gameplay. The application part of the paper focuses on game content optimization, specifically from the perspective of enhancing player experience. It examines areas such as player interaction and in-game elements, explaining how AI algorithms have been used to optimize these aspects and create a more immersive gaming experience. Furthermore, the future expectations section revolves around further advancements in optimizing the gaming experience and incorporating AI into the game design and development stages. It also discusses potential improvements in hardware that can better support AI integration in games. Finally, the article concludes with a summary and expectations for the future development of AI in gaming, highlighting the potential benefits and advancements that can be achieved through the continued use of AI algorithms.
