wrong, he still works at mihoyo and is the head producer of Varsapura which is their new game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MiHoYo#Cognosphere Cognosphere is literally just a sub-company that manages several games not independent at all.

Most likely it will end with some ultimate AI generated wify or husbando with LLM chat and other "functions" tied to gacha since Hoyo already have Whispers of the Stars (made by Hoyo founder game) with a literal AI space girlfriend.
Not clearly under Hoyowerse but the next game Varsapura might be.

PVP and gacha games are probably the ones that will embrace gen AI to the fullest. I see it with Hoyowerse. A year or so ago, actors starting attending anti-AI strikes and voicing their concerns over gen AI in Hoyowerse games. Later we see AI jobs openings, Petit planet AI NPC, Varsapura having

it's just going to be the inevitable hoyo cycle when varsapura comes out, I think it's awesome but then hoyo enshittification creeps in and now suddenly get fucking ready everyone for a whole year of a low effort chinese region with a story that makes you want to throw yourself into a spike trap

yet Corey Landis(VA of Welt) who mostly stays out of drama gets the boot. plus I’m hearing some GenAI dog whistles regarding one of their next games, Varsapura. Could be nothing but MiHoYo has given me no reason to not believe they aren’t gonna cram GenAI ASAP.

Varsapura as well.
How could I forget??? With Cai Haoyu as the lead (one of the Hoyo founders), an AI soul caster as he calls himself. With AI research company Anuttacon that made Whispers of the Stars, a sort-of AI (LLM) space-girlfriend game with gen AI disclosure on Steam!

I know the gameplay came out awhile ago but as a Singaporean, Varsapura really got the dull dreariness of an average overcast day on point. I looked at it and felt no escapism. Cannot wait to drive to work in game.

Ивент со шмотками за 120 купонов хренатень несусветная. Даже если нашел шесть идеальных шмоток, то оставшиеся купоны уже нельзя трогать, иначе перетрешь предыдущие.
Миска риса вместо следующей планеты очень удручает.
Зато varsapura выглядит прикольно.

แต่ชอบความแบบพูดว่าการมาของเกม Varsapura (UE5) นั้นเป็นการเลี่ยงบาหลี ทำเกมฉีกแนว กราฟิกสมจริง ไม่ให้เขาลอกสไตส์ของตัวเอง (สไตส์โฮโยะ) แสดงให้เห็นว่าตัวเองตั้งเป้าจะนำเขาก้าวนึงเสมอ

But looking into their newer projects, it looks like they're looking to use it more. Especially if this ad is any indication. I guess Petit Planet is gonna have 2 ai chat bots in the game for some reason. And I hear Varsapura is gonna implement it but idk how.

Cai Haoyu, former Hoyo CEO in charge of their new title Varsapura, released a chatbot called “Anuneko” yesterday.
Chinese website CGames discusses how this is Cai Haoyu’s hope for AI to be more emotionally connected with the player. It also talks about NPC dialogue in Varsapura being AI generated.
