Abstract

As open-world games evolve toward greater scale and complexity, traditional AI tools struggle to meet the demands of dynamic environments and player-driven interactions. This has spurred growing interest in generative AI as a means to enhance creativity, scalability, and responsiveness in game design. This article analyzes the decision redundancy, state collapse, and labor cost dilemma faced by traditional technologies such as behavior trees and finite state machines in a dynamic open world, revealing the fundamental contradictions they cause, which forces developers to abandon creative solutions to maintain feasibility; Post argument generative artificial intelligence has achieved breakthrough improvements in development efficiency through neural symbolic architectures such as WHAM models, director actor collaboration, and reconstruction of art production chains. This article also points out a series of technological bottlenecks that artificial intelligence needs to face, such as the collapse of continuity narrative, the misalignment of physical logic, and the distortion of cultural transfer, which exposes the enormous challenges that AI faces in the fields of logical consistency, physical rules, and culture.
