or here me out companies can pay AW testers better and stop making bloated open world games

also AI wont be able to do this job at all
I would love for them to be paid well, but I don't think you realize how truly soulless and crushing the job is.

Do good? Find a bunch of bugs and report them? Congratulations, your reward is exasperation and frustration from the people you have to report this to.

Do bad? Congratulations, you basically get the same reward and get to eat blame.

The work itself? Infinite tedium. You're repeating the same tasks ad nauseam until you get that one weird result you got half an hour ago.

It's precisely the kind of job that automation should be targeting, pure joyless necessity.

Also it's been automated for nearly two decades at this point. In some capacity anyway.
