SAG-AFTRA, the largest entertainment union in the US, has approved a groundbreaking deal allowing AI voice cloning technology to be used in video games. This controversial decision opens up a world of possibilities for game developers, offering cost-effective solutions and allowing for a wider range of characters and voices to be included in games. With this deal, the gaming industry is poised for a revolution in voice acting, ushering in a new era of creativity and innovation. #agreement #AIvoicecloning #approval #ArtificialIntelligence #controversialdeal #digitalvoicereplicas #GamingIndustry #SAGAFTRA #technology. #union #VideoGames #voiceactors

🌟 Exciting News: My First Blog is Live on Medium! 🌟 I’m thrilled to share that I’ve just published my very first blog titled, "From Pixels to Play: The Algorithmic Magic Behind Games." 🎮✨ In this piece, I dive into how algorithms create the seamless experiences we love in gaming, turning lines of code into immersive worlds. It was such an eye-opening journey, and I couldn’t have done it without the guidance of Professor Sampada Kulkarni, whose insights truly helped bring my ideas to life. If you're curious about the intersection of algorithms and gaming or are passionate about tech, I’d love for you to give it a read. Your feedback and thoughts mean the world to me! Check it out below, and let’s connect over tech and gaming insights! 👇 #BloggingJourney #GameDevelopment #Algorithms #FirstBlog #TechInsights #GuidedLearning #LinkedInCommunity

Chatbots for simulating live discussions with slang and knowledge of internet culture. On Deaddit (that's the name of the platform), you can read both historical threads about the Tudor dynasty in England and discussions about socialization in video games. Everything here is controlled by "artificial intelligences," and humans can only watch. https://deaddit.xyz/

This is The Matrix, a real time video gen game simulator. Every frame is generated on the fly based on the control input, achieved extremely accurate generation control. The underlying diffusion transformer model is a novel Shift-Window Denoise Process Models (Swin-DPM), leveraging a sliding temporal window to handle dependencies effectively and enable long or infinite video generation. Incredible! The future video game, even AAA games, will not be rendered and run on deterministic game engines but on AI models. https://lnkd.in/dG2H92hb

We are now in a world where people who know literally nothing about games look at ‘gen’ AI fan projects and go, “Hey this thing is the future of games.” No it’s not. Here we have a student, who has never worked in a technology field in any area whatsoever. They have never shipped a game or any other commercial entertainment project. Great, go and make a game. And run it on a sub $1000 PC. Instead they feel comfortably confident that expensive cloud GPUs are the future of games. Games, a field they know nothing about. Being a gamer, entitles one to enjoy games not make predictions. Now anyone can become a game developer. Game developers don’t make no nonsensical predictions about the game industry on social media based on their favorite hype bubble tech. Either we make arguments and analysis that we expect our colleagues to tear apart, or we just go off and make games, usually a lot of both. Discussion is good. Bullshit predictions don’t hold water. So the notion that somebody found a ‘gen’ AI project that generates frames of video of a vehicle rotating around with no physics, showing a flat plane around them with different textures to it, that’s not a game, it’s a boring video generator. A video game is not a non-performant video generator. Only people that have zero understanding of games would think that a video generator that shows a vehicle rotating around on a flat plane is a game. The problem is that the game industry is now the largest entertainment industry in the world. So ignorant strangers with no idea what it takes to make a game flock to game predictions to get legitimacy. They weigh in on a thing that they don’t understand to get views. Games are rules, heuristics, consistency, design, planning & anticipating user experience. Figuring out gameplay with mechanics and dynamics and components. Games are about systems. Games are not about a crappy non-performant video generator. Games are about interaction. Games are nonlinear. Games are about player agency. Games are dynamism. Game design is about predicting the possibilities without knowing the player input. Games are not about linear video generation by overpriced cloud GPU’s that cost $10,000-$40,000 apiece. We instead run on hardware that cost $200-$400. The notion of ‘gen’ AI going into games is the most ridiculous nonstarter in technology because games are about consistency not hallucination. Games are about running cheaply on consumer hardware not running expensively and slowly on cloud GPUs. Games are about 30 to 60 frames per second not a frame every couple of minutes. The ‘gen’ AI enthusiasts are answering a question that no one wants. One is supposed to start with the player experience not with “how can I push prompt work to models running on cloud arrays, expensively, slowly and inefficiently.” Gen AI for games is like suggesting that people drive aircraft carriers to work… on land. Games are for gamers. And ‘gen’ AI doesn’t give gamers anything. #ai #fakeai
