Mobile & Apps: "Since the dawn of gaming, many companies tend to entered the market with obscure products on a regular basis. It's a regular thing, it's expected. However, when these products come from well known companies with a history in gaming, then right there we have a problem."
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.
This is some exciting news. NVIDIA today announced the GeForce RTX™ 40 SUPER Series family of GPUs at CES.
This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. 3D games on current phones/tables especially the iPad 4 have VASTLY superior image quality, super-HD resolutions and superior textures to the PS3 and the 360. This will steamroll current consoles in image quality on a 1080p TV. Consoles run at 800x600 or some joke of a resolution with shitty textures, low poly models and horrendous jaggies.
Not to mention it has a full fledged controller, a 2nd display and does EVERYTHING better than a console without stupid restrictions on video formats, streaming, data transfer etc.
The biggest joke is this thing will have superior resolution, texture quality and framerates than the PS4 and 720.
console gamer: we don't care for graphics but gameplay
console gamer 2: god of war has better graphics than halo but gears of war has better graphics than uncharted.
console gamers say they don't care for graphics but why are they always comparing games and talking about FPS.
the thing looks tho like it was beat with an ugly stick
its something new, its an interesting idea that may be better implemented in the future.
For me its more about the Tegra 4. The next gen of tablets and smart phones are going to be graphical powerhouses.
