>Chatbot programmers get out reeeeeeeeee
You rorget the anroid part. Chatbots aren't the only thing on humanoid AI and honestly, they tend to be very simple outdated software anyways. Think more about stuff like Hiroshi Ishiguro's Erica (pic related). These robots are now beein played around with to do humaly tasks like teaching and reception desk, as well as helping us understand human psychology. It's mainly intended for healthcare and science, maybe later companionship. Also, entertaiment. For example, think about how weebs would go crazy if we make Vocaloids physical, they already get insane from some holograms. There are a lot of options that aren't cheap chatbots and much more interesting than chatbots as well.

>it's not like we don't end up working with new tech on the regular since we normally automate our old job and get chucked onto a new one. Not to mention that after you've already programmed an engine and done the research you can do it again much easier now that you have the experience.
It could be learned, but having read my DirectX books, game-related AI, C++, and other essentials, I don't suggest randomly making a game to show off on a channel. I guess my problem is more that a lot of people seem to be like "games are so cool and fun, so let's go make those" while a lot of people underestimate what goes into it and making a game from scratch is not exactly the most easy thing to do. I've seen a lot of students at university who liked gaming so decided they want to make games and then never even got that far because they where not good enough to get the classes that where perquisite of starting gamedevelopent. They often enough stayed stuck in web or switched schooling.
