Transformer2025: AI and the Future of Games

Transformer AI brings together AI scholars and practitioners in a unique forum to share the latest in both research and practice. Speakers include Luke Dicken, head of AI at Take Two Interactive; Dr. Hartmut Koenitz, Professor in Media Technology at Södertörn University in Sweden and author of “Understanding Interactive Digital Narratives;” Dov Jacobson, president of GamesThatWork; Dr. Victoria Lagrange, head of the Kennesaw State University Game Narrative Lab; Kent Keirsey, founder of Invoke AI and owner of the first copyright for AI-generated art; and many more.

Through discussions, hands-on workshops, and interactive play, we will examine AI’s impact on game design, storytelling, player engagement, and the broader cultural landscape.

We invite proposals for in-person presentations, workshops, demos, and posters that engage with AI and games from diverse perspectives, including but not limited to:

• AI-driven game design and development
• Procedural content generation and adaptive storytelling
• AI as a creative partner in game art, music, and narrative
• The ethics of AI in gaming: biases, agency, and control
• AI-enhanced player experiences and dynamic game worlds
• Human-AI interaction in game environments
• The business and industry impact of AI on game production and distribution

We welcome contributions from academics, industry professionals, and independent creators. Sessions should be designed to be engaging and accessible to a diverse audience. Workshops and demos should include hands-on or interactive elements where possible.
