I'm actually really excited about AI driven Gamedev. Imagine the next generation of Skyrim where rather than picking prewritten dialog options you can have natural conversations with NPCs.
Where rather than the - necessarily limited - set of predesigned outfit/equipment/face combinations each characters appearance can adjust to what happened to them. Their outfit changes with their commercial status, fights leave scars, having experienced tragedy leaves a haunted look.
Where rather than premodelled dungeons the world shapes around me to tell a story.
Gamedesign would change - and game artists would change from making 3D meshes, textures and animations to being authors of storylines and styles.
