Infinity Ward Clarifies Gunny in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 lead studio Infinity Ward clarifies that Gunsmith assistant 'Gunny' is not an AI chatbot, but a 'hand-crafted' creation by the developers.

Infinity Ward responded to claims by TheGhostOfHope, emphasizing that Gunny provides build recommendations based on unlocked attachments for weapons, aiding in quick loadout changes between matches. The Gunsmith mode aims to assist players in optimizing loadouts for different combat scenarios, offering suggestions for weapon modifications.

Despite previous reports, Infinity Ward asserts that Gunny is not AI-driven, contrasting it with Activision's use of generative AI for in-game assets in titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops 6. The studio's response to TheGhostOfHope's leaks highlights a strained relationship with the leaker, prompting Activision to intervene and demand an end to information leaks.
