I'll be real dawg, its because you're a layman and you aren't being specific enough with what you're talking about, so we have to draw inferences on what we think you're trying to ask, to which you repeatedly just said "that's not what I mean" to an extent that I can barely wrap my head around what you're even doing here.

You made up your mind zero seconds in and are engaging with social media at this point just to talk to people. Which is fine sort of, just don't get all haughty over it.

If your point was "can someone with no programming experience talk to AI a bunch to learn how to do this?" I'd say probably, yeah. The debatable part beyond that would be scrutinizing the project and dealing with the hard parts of game development, especially multi-player persistent world.

It would be really challenging, particularly due to the lack of idempotency--which basically means it doesn't produce a consistent result. If you ask it A, it does not always respond with B. Because fundamentally that's just not really how they work, right.

And so the biggest hurdles will be anytime you need to revisit things, or append things, or expand on a thing you've already built, it's not necessarily going to "know" that and give you back what it thinks you want and how that not really being specifically what you're trying to do, and then trying to figure out how to get it to do what you actually wanted.

Honestly what I would expect to see happen, what I think is far more likely, is that AI would get someone like that far enough through the project to have that person begin to understand what it is they need to actually do and then rely less and less on the AI as they just simply aren't that helpful.

But yeah, at the end of the day, building an MMO isn't a secret, it's a pretty well known thing how to do it's just a huge pain in the ass. So like if you asked AI about it it should be able to tell you these concepts and what is generally considered best practice (although even that is suspect, remember, AI can't think, it isn't intelligent, it doesn't really understand things, so it's just going to say whatever it sees enough people saying is a best practice).
