Tommy's riding solo in this episode, and so he decided to focus on games he's playing, projects he's involved in and the big stories in the news that are going down.
As mentioned, I am involved in the AI and Games Summer School for this year. I will be doing a bunch of stuff (to be confirmed) but probably a talk and maybe hosting another panel.
It's running from June 17th-21st in Valletta in Malta.
The early bird registration closes on March 1st.

The first volume of 'Game AI Uncovered', a new textbook series from games industry professionals on AI in commercial titles is coming out on February 23rd. I was invited to write the opening chapter of the book, and very excited to not only have my own copy which arrived last week.
It will be available on Amazon and all major book stores.
