Xbox Games Studios boss says artificial intelligence QA is his 'dream'

Matt Booty said current QA processes haven't 'kept up' with modern development.

Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty has said it's his"dream" to turn to"transformational" AI and machine learning as an alternative to human QA testing.during PAX West.

Booty continued by saying it's his"dream" to see AI testers become a reality, adding"there's a lot going on with AI and machine learning right now, and people using AI to generate all these images. What I always say when I bump into the AI folks is 'help me figure out how to use an AI bot to go test a game,' because I would love to be able to start up 10,000 instances of a game in the cloud.

It seems unlikely Booty is advocating for doing away with human QA testers entirely, so much as theorising about about how a new technology could be used in the QA process. It's not the best look at a time when the wider industry faces ongoing actions and controversies over QA testing practices: tester roles are a notoriously underpaid, underappreciated and overworked part of the development process .
