Epic Games首席执行官蒂姆·斯威尼表示,公司希望利用人工智能让开发者能够做更多的事情。Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has said the company wants to use AI to enable developers to do more.

Epic Games 正在发布其启动器的全新版本,这家《堡垒之夜》制作公司称其进行了“氛围编码”。该公司在周三的公告中写道:“编程很难。”

Epic Games is releasing a revamped version of its launcher that the "Fortnite" maker says it vibe coded. "Programming is hard," the company wrote in an announcement on Wednesday.

“因此,我们没有进行编程,而是氛围编码了一个全新的 Epic Games 启动器,它比当前版本快得多且更具响应性,并且拥有全新的外观。”

"So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher that's way faster and more responsive than the current one, and has a new look."

Epic Games 表示,其新启动器目前“功能较少”,用户应该“把它当作快艇而不是游艇!”

Epic Games says its new launcher is "light on features" for now and that users should "think of it as a speedboat and not a yacht!"

该公告还概述了将《堡垒之夜》引入 Linux 的计划,该公告发布于 Epic 首席执行官蒂姆·斯威尼表示公司正在进行重大转变的几天之后。

The announcement, which also outlined plans to bring Fortnite to Linux, came days after Epic CEO Tim Sweeney said there was a major shift underway at the company.

斯威尼在周一的 X 上写道:“我们在这里正在进行一次巨大的转变,重新分配开发人员以实现最大程度的 AI 加速。”

"We have a huge pivot underway here at Epic, moving developers around to retool for maximum AI acceleration," Sweeney wrote on X on Monday.

斯威尼表示,公司并不打算裁减开发人员,而是要让他们能够做更多的事情。

Sweeney said the company isn't looking to shed developers, but rather enable them to do more.

“目标不是用更少的人做同样的事情,而是让这里的每个人都能构建更多、更好的东西,并将这些好处带给所有使用虚幻引擎的团队。”

"The aim isn't to do the same stuff with fewer people, but to enable everyone here to build MORE and BETTER stuff, and to bring the benefits to all teams using Unreal," he said.

斯威尼在三月《堡垒之夜》制作公司宣布裁员超过 1000 名员工时也发表了类似言论。斯威尼表示裁员与 AI 无关。

Epic's leader made similar comments in March when the Fortnite maker announced that it was laying off more than 1,000 employees. Sweeney said the cuts were not related to AI.

“既然这是一件正在发生的事情,我应该指出,裁员与 AI 无关,”他在一份向员工发布的备忘录中写道,该公司已公开分享该备忘录。

"Since it's a thing now, I should note that the layoffs aren't related to AI," he wrote in a memo to employees that the company shared publicly.

“在其提高生产力的程度上,我们希望尽可能多地拥有出色的开发人员来开发优秀的内容和技术。”

"To the extent it improves productivity, we want to have as many awesome developers developing great content and tech as we can."
