Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming game development and games research, while raising new questions about ethics, governance, creativity, and societal impact. This talk introduces the findings of the UN Independent International Scientific Panel on AI's Preliminary Report and discussed the relevance with current developments in the games sector. It highlights which of the report's insights are most relevant for developers and researchers, covering topics such as generative AI, intellectual property, transparency, bias, child safety, sustainability, and trustworthy AI. Participants will gain an overview of emerging challenges, opportunities, and practical considerations for the responsible use of AI in games.
