That’s a joke… so far, but this is not:
Yep, Sony’s solution to not being able to make an affordable machine / game combo that can do 4k60fps is to augment ai frame generation with ai predictive player input.
So, basically, if/when this gets implemented, everyone will literally be playing with ai assisted aimbots and auto triggering movement macros, you know, hacks.
Because real rendering is too hard, because actual optimization is too hard… so… ai generate fake frames, which cause input lag, so then just ai generate player input, to compensate for the lag which is basically a result of UE5’s nanite and lumen being horrendously unoptimized and unperformant.
Makes perfect sense. Why bother with root cause analysis when AI!!!
Now I’m able to blame dark souls deaths on AI. “The prediction dodged too early, it’s not my fault”. What a fucking joke
You will own nothing and be happy.
You will watch the game play itself and be happy.
Drink verification can to continue enjoying this experience.
In before someone comes in with “iTs JuSt A pAtEnT” as if that somehow makes it less terrifying
Getting AI to play a game that was coded by AI, using AI textures and music, using AI upscaling and AI frame generation on my Copilot+ PC, so that I can use AI to create a YouTube video from the footage which can then be stolen by an AI web crawler and used to train AI models to create more AI content
Ahhh… I remember when Abraham Lincoln predicted this true Circle of Life.
That almost makes sense.
I recently tried one of those god-awful “idle clicker” style games, and my first thought was: “This is such a grind… I could write software to automate this.” Then I realized that Factorio is right there.
I think some people might actually need something like this. “You’ve been playing video games for 36 hours straight, please go take a shower. I will handle this for you until you’re out.”
Great news for Elon
Just saying, James Rolfe did an Angry Video Game Nerd two part episode with this very premise last month.
Yep came here to see if anyone had mentioned it LOL.
You don’t need AI to have auto-play MMOs and gachas. They even are on mobile!
What we need is a gaming AI that predicts what games you might play and preemptively downloads those giant patches while removing games you wouldn’t play when disk space gets low.
Or better yet, cartridges.
Isn’t that what streamers are for?
Why would you pay a man in the middle if you can just fill your streaming platform with AI generated content? The maschine works 24/7, produces the content that works best and only starts a shitstorm if you want it.
I think you’re vastly overestimating the size of the audience for 100% AI generated content.
I do love those games where you have to set rules and let the game play for you (anybody play Stone Story?). A game based on training AI and giving AI instructions on how to play it and watching what happens sounds interesting. Who’s gonna make this for me?
Zachtronics already made this game, called Exapunks
It’s not quite AI, but the game loop gives you a puzzle board in which you program little bots to solve the puzzle. You’re then ranked by time and cycles required.
Some of these puzzles get diabolical, too. It’s a good game.
That’s how I want city building games to be lol. Let me just setup roads and maybe utility buildings and see how that goes. Don’t want to handle budget and shit.
That’s your average gacha game. And even some actual games did it, like Disgaea - ruining the whole series.
We don’t talk about disgaea 6 anymore. 7 fixed that.
I’m yet to try that one. I’ve heard some automation is still in there and never looked further. I think it’s now limited by some currency or something, but I don’t want bad automation mechanics in my games - not even as a rare “treat”.
But can it be toxic ?
Depends on the training dataset, but where would you even find gamers being toxic?
It will be toxic.
Cool, maybe I’ll finally finish dark souls 3’s first 10 meters of the map.
Unironicly I do enjoy playing a video game and asking the ai about shit tho. Eg. What does this item do etc etc
TBH: Some games are really a stupid grindfest. I’m avoiding some games because grinding for hundreds of hours to get to the interesting parts is stupid and I don’t have the time for that. An AI that grinds for me would really be great.
My brother in Christ… you just invented the AutoRPG.
