An AI isn't needed for Game development, But comes in handy when you're actually working with set of characters perhaps a RPG project of some sort. Although for Game development most Game engines have built-in AI's though. So if you do plan on using Game engines then don't worry too much if not then prepare yourself. IF you do use C++ for a game that was created for scratch and needed an AI then i highly recommend you learn a language called "D" which has it's purpose for AIs and also supports C++ as a backend language.

No, its not needed for all game making,you never know, its might be useful, something is classed as AI, if it passes the Turing test.
