SkyNet is an action shooter released for PC in 1996. Recent coverage has focused less on the game itself than on a broader conversation about AI in game development, sparked by commentary from id Software's former co-owner. The discussion touched on how pioneering developers of that era might have approached generative AI tools had they been available, with references to the creative ambitions of figures like John Carmack. The broader industry conversation around AI's role in game creation continues to draw attention to older titles and their development philosophies.
