RuneScape's Position on Gen AI

Jagex, the developers of RuneScape, have released a statement regarding their stance on the use of large language models (LLMs) and general AI (Gen AI) in their game. According to the statement, Jagex views Gen AI as a future technology that will bring 'immersive and dynamic game worlds' to RuneScape. However, the company also acknowledges that it may take several years before such technology is developed and implemented in their game. Jagex sees the potential of Gen AI to create 'unique' player experiences, but notes that any AI-generated content will be created to 'enhance and support the existing game world' rather than replace it.
