AI NEEDS GAME DESIGNERS

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Game designers have spent decades figuring out how to let humans direct complex, multi-agent systems in real-time, surface information at the right moment, and make something intricate feel intuitive. The command interfaces in RTS games are the result of decades of iteration on parallel attention management. Someone needs to build an interface for AI agents that allows users to spin up workers, assign them to control groups, see their status on a dashboard, get alerts when they need attention, and coordinate their work. The people most suited to build this are game designers.
