How will AI affect Unreal Engine and the industry?

Deep AI is great tool, speeds up working/coding.

And here is example of my recent work with it:

This is sector map for game i am working on, numbers are int32 IDs for cells in map variable. I needed function that gives adjacent cells to selected ID.

There are 2 cases: when column size expands and when shrinks. I described it all to GPT in prompt, and it created decent function. But it could never get few things right, no matter the prompts. It does not understand reason and how this should work, so it never could fix edge cases.

So after getting first prototype of function it was time to fix and code myself rest. Deep AI without real understanding what code is for cannot create whole game or application, and there is no way of explaining all nuances in prompt. You still need coder that can write prompt, then check code and fix it. Even for quite simple function like i needed in this example.
