How Ubisoft Uses AI & Machine Learning to Build Games

The most important part, though, is hidden in "the Minority Report of programming." The studio's Commit Assistant is the project of La Forge, the Ubisoft Montreal collaborative R&D division, and it is something truly amazing. When a programmer writes a new line of code, Commit Assistant searches for parts of the code that are adding bugs. The algorithm is based on a decade's worth of code changes and bug reports from Ubisoft games at every stage of development. The project is said to analyze bugs and create a "signature" that estimates the impact of the new code and the probability of future problems.
