Forvbes - If you’ve been following the news from CES 2013, you’ll know that NVIDIA has announced its Tegra 4 powered, handheld Android-based gaming device, SHIELD. It looks like the PS3/Xbox-style gamepad controller and a Nintendo DS had a baby. And like all infants, it has terrific potential.
Nvidia presented Covert Protocol, a tech demo aiming to showcase the "power" of the Nvidia Ace technology applied to video game characters.
I don’t know why people keep thinking of it as AI vs no AI.
A much more likely scenario is the use of AI alongside human work.
Eg. AI voices used during side quests or banter to boost the lines of dialog.
AI generating additional pre determined branches in dialog tree options for more freedom in conversations with NPCs
The biggest thing to talk about here is that every interaction requires communication to inworld servers so there's three big impacts here
1) games are always online no question about it
2) delays in processing on inworld servers, outages or unexpected load as a result of some astronomically popular game will cause real time game delays ever wait for a chat got response this will be similar as the context must be pulled via the llm.
Now as for the other impact the artistic one no I don't think writers can be replaced I've mentioned before often AI generated writing is word soup I still standby that it's also evident in the video to.
AI can not convery accurately human emotions and I don't think ever will.
I know publishers are looking to cut down on development costs but what happens when inworld decide to charge per interaction or update their pricing a year after your game goes live you have no choice but pay it or shutter it.
Ive felt for a while that we are heading towards this place of games being disposable entertainment and now it's feeling more and more accurate
NVIDIA has released the RTX HDR AI-powered Freestyle filter to enable great HDR in SDR-only PC games. They also added RTX Dynamic Vibrance.
I had a little drag and drop mod that did this, it's nice to see that I can do it through the filters now. It really makes a difference on games like Control that has some really washed out blacks making the game lose depth and look flat. Borderlands 2 looks great with it on, makes the colours pop and the 'splosion's are epic.
Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.
First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.
Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.
There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.
You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.
Did Valve and Nvidia Just One-Up the Wii U? No! But it is a good idea and shows just how innovative the Wii U really is. I wouldn't be surprised if both MS and Sony have some sort of screen on their respective controllers. If that happens, all the Wii U haters will, all of a sudden have a change of heart and try to embrace this innovation. Either way, it's always good to see new and innovative ways to play games, regardless of what ever console you choose!
LOL nintendo just led the charge like always.
Answer, 'no'. Long answer, 'hellllllll no'.
Power wise they just crushed Sony and ms at there own game, the power wars. Their controller setup is retarded though.
The thing runs off a chip that is like 700 xboxes duct taped together. Ms and Sony don't have a chance in hell of beating that tech then nvidia made it so any one could use it. So you know nintendo could actually use this tech to beat ms and Sony tech wise and then offer nintendo games on top of it.
NO THEY DID NOT!Nintendo has is own game and is unbeatable at it!
