Your Next Teammate Could Be an AI—And That’s Not a Bad Thing
In the evolving world of video games, players are no longer just squaring off against static computer opponents or teaming up with silent, pre-scripted allies.

Today’s AI teammates learn, adapt, and even predict your next move. They aren’t just background code anymore as we saw in many Unity 2D & 3D game development; they’re part of the team.
