AC Hexe Director: AI Coding "Sucked," Learned Despite It

Former Assassin's Creed Hexe director, Clint Hocking, tried using AI to learn coding and found it "brutal." He said ChatGPT "kind of sucked" and didn't really know how to code. Hocking spent most of his time debugging the AI's broken code, even though he didn't know how to code himself. What's interesting is that he eventually learned coding by fixing ChatGPT's mistakes. He later used JavaScript to gain real programming insight. Hocking notes he learned to code "despite ChatGPT." This experience highlights potential issues for new developers relying on AI tools. Meanwhile, the game Hexe is reportedly moving away from supernatural elements. Instead, it will explain protagonist Anika's "powers" with basic chemistry. There are also rumors of an overhauled combat system with mo-capped contortionists and a possible return for Ezio. The bottom line is that while AI tools are becoming more common, their reliability for complex tasks like coding remains a significant challenge.
