“You need to bring novelty to the gameplay. It is a struggle if you think about it to create a repetitive business model. It's very hard to guarantee that the next game will be as successful as this one because the same recipe will not work twice more often.” – @EricVezzoli
Eric Vezzoli, Director of Technology at @Razer , leads innovation across AI, haptics, immersive technologies and developer platforms. A researcher turned entrepreneur, he founded Interhaptics, a technology platform acquired by Razer in 2022, and now works at the intersection of gaming, artificial intelligence and human-machine interaction.
In my latest podcast episode, we explore gaming, AI, economics, and the future with humanity.
“The legacy (of gaming) is changing by moving to be enabled to be interfaced with agents and deterministic software will increase its capability way more because there is enormous value to take away hallucination from the system, thanks to generative AI. I see the creation of this software that is being used by AI Agents to create end experiences.”
With more than 150 million unique users across its ecosystem, Razer is moving beyond gaming hardware into software, AI, immersive experiences and developer technologies.
Through Razer Wyvrn and Razer Indie Lab, Eric and his team are making advanced tools more accessible to independent game developers, helping smaller studios experiment with technologies traditionally associated with larger productions.
“We started a specific effort which is called Razer Indie Lab which is only focused to bring and explain and democratize and help the indie community to have access to these tools that are usually reserved for advanced production.”
The conversation also examines AI-powered quality assurance, where Razer is developing technology to automate repetitive game-testing tasks while keeping human judgement central to the creative process.
Eric explains how AI could raise the standard of game production, creating new expectations among players and changing how studios approach development.
“Nobody will ever accept anymore a game with bugs at launch because that becomes whenever AI can help you to take that away the market expectations shift.” So what it is today a AAA game could probably be achieved by a much smaller team with much much less money. But the expectation of the gamers of what is a triple AAA game will skyrocket ”
We also discuss the future of embodied AI, gamification, emotional connections with digital beings and the responsibility that comes with technologies capable of influencing human behaviour.
“Always be curious and never specifically today never take what something or someone tells you as a face value and check the sources later.”

What happens when AI literacy becomes something you have to prove, not simply claim?
AI adoption is accelerating faster than verified human capability. Corporate AI adoption has risen from around 20% in 2017 to 96% in 2026, yet 41% of businesses still struggle to demonstrate the value of their AI investments, while more than 70% of professionals lack foundational AI understanding.
The problem is not that we lack AI courses or certificates. We have thousands of them.
The problem is that most credentials still tell us that someone attended, completed or paid for a programme. They rarely tell an employer, university or government what that person can actually do with AI, where their capability gaps remain, or whether the credential itself can be independently verified.
This is why I created the AI ID Passport™ around a different principle: certification should follow demonstrated readiness, not seat time.
At its core is the AI Readiness Wheel™, measuring capability across ten interconnected domains, from strategy and infrastructure to responsible AI, regulation, cybersecurity, sustainability and workforce transformation. Progress is measured against a baseline and reassessed over time rather than reduced to a simple pass/fail certificate.
The credential itself is designed to be blockchain-verifiable, privacy-preserving and independently checkable, carrying competency-level information rather than a single generic certificate. But verification alone is not enough. The real value comes from combining verifiable credentials with rigorous assessment of actual capability.
As AI becomes embedded across education, business and government, the strategic question will increasingly become:
How do we know who is genuinely ready to use AI responsibly, safely and effectively?
In my latest Businessabc article, I explain why we need an AI ID Passport, how the AI Readiness Wheel works, and why the future of AI education must move from attendance to measurable capability:
