My responsibilities include gathering, analysing, and reporting on Feedback from our internal playtests. I have helped establish this process, and I worked with development leads to help them understand and work with this new process.During this time, I have also grown accustomed to using AI tools to categories and summarise large chunks of information. I then review and edit the output into something easily digestible for development leads and the executive level. I have also tested new AI updates and provided feedback on them.
