Runway AI, having already disrupted Hollywood with its generative AI capabilities, is now turning its attention to the video game industry. CEO Cristóbal Valenzuela has unveiled ambitious plans, including the launch of an interactive gaming experience in the near future and the prospect of fully AI-generated video games later this year. The company is actively pursuing strategic partnerships with established gaming companies to leverage its technology and gain access to valuable training datasets. Valenzuela believes the gaming sector is ripe for AI adoption, mirroring Hollywood’s initial hesitation. He pointed to Amazon’s ‘House of David,’ a project partially powered by Runway’s AI, as evidence of the technology’s potential, and highlighted ongoing collaborations with leading studios and Fortune 100 corporations.
