AI put Minecraft in Skyrim (and OpenAI had a Dev Day)

AI news this week: Claude Opus 5.5 is modding every video game, from Minecraft in Skyrim to Portal in CoD Zombies, plus OpenAI DevDay's Dots & GPT-6.1 Sol. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the wildest week of AI game modding yet. Cheaper, faster coding agents mean people are taking games apart and stitching them back together: Skate 3 skateboarding inside Modern Warfare 2, a Minecraft and Skyrim mashup called SkyCraft, Minecraft and Mario in Dark Souls and even a (claimed) decompile of Sega's Seaman. We explain what's actually happening under the hood (mods vs. decompiles vs. two game engines talking to each other), check out Rehan Sheikh's Universal Modder toolkit and talk about how you can start making your own. The lawyers will def have thoughts. Also: OpenAI's DevDay brought Dots, always-on agents with their own cloud computers that connect to 4,000+ apps, plus ChatGPT Space, a new $500 a month plan, the Agents and Decisions APIs and GPT-6.1 Sol. Gavin put Sol head to head with Claude Opus 5.5 and, well, Opus won. Google finally announced Gemini 4 with huge benchmark numbers. Plus: Gavin's agent Fig used Opus 5.5 to make a 27-minute documentary almost entirely on its own (script, AI host, edit and music) with about six hours of his notes. We break down the process, the cost and where it got weird. Then quick hits on Ideogram 4.5, Kling 4.0 and ElevenLabs v4, what came out of the White House AI summit, and in AI See What You Did There: a Spider-Man browser game, a Succession-style AI series and Stallone doing very dangerous stunts. THE LAWYERS ARE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT.   // Chapters // 00:00 AI Is Modding Every Video Game Right Now 05:32 How AI Game Modding Actually Works with Opus 5.5 13:15 OpenAI DevDay: Dots The Personal AI Assistant (Again) 18:17 ChatGPT Spaces 20:40 GPT-6.1 Sol vs Claude Opus 5.5: Gavin's Test 27:30 Gemini 4 Is Finally Announced (Benchmarks vs Reality) 29:41 Gavin's AI Agent Made A 27-Minute Documentary With Opus 5.5 41:29 Quick Tools: Ideogram 4.5, Kling 4.0 & ElevenLabs v4 43:57 The White House AI Summit & Jensen's "Near Term Pain" 48:43 AI See What You Did There: SpiderBench, AI Succession & Stallone Stunts   // Show Links // Skate 3 skateboarding inside Modern Warfare 2 https://x.com/chasmmmmmmmmmmm/status/2104349115521888748 Minecraft x Skyrim https://x.com/chasmmmmmmmmmmm/status/2105046595548967150 How SkyCraft works (Minecraft and Skyrim running side by side) https://github.com/chasmlol/SkyCraft Call of Duty Zombies on the web (creator's claim, unverified) https://x.com/p_e_cooper/status/2104980433972703483 Portal x CoD Zombies https://x.com/p_e_cooper/status/2105387636131024992 Minecraft and Mario in Dark Souls https://x.com/Deltaroo3D/status/2105345162771648883 Sega's Seaman decompiled with Astra (creator's claim, unverified) https://x.com/145k4/status/2105318135104446965 Universal Modder by Rehan Sheikh https://x.com/rehan_shei/status/2105161487509852622 https://github.com/rehan-remade/universal-modder OpenAI introduces Dots https://x.com/OpenAI/status/2104984504133918973 OpenAI DevDay 2026 keynote https://www.youtube.com/live/Fls_onRviPM The DevDay demo fail https://www.youtube.com/live/Fls_onRviPM?t=697 ChatGPT Space https://chatgpt.com/features/space/ Introducing GPT-6.1 Sol https://openai.com/ind
