Epic Games has confirmed it is using AI coding tools — which it describes as 'vibe-coding' — in the development of Unreal Engine 6, Fortnite and other projects.

Why now: Epic's open confirmation that AI-generated code is going into flagship products like Unreal Engine 6 and Fortnite is a striking stance amid heated debate over AI in software development.
