How Google's new AI could change videogames forever
"Project Genie, which is currently only available for Google's AI Ultra subscribers, uses AI to build virtual worlds. That sounds interesting, if not necessarily revolutionary. Videogame developers already model and build virtual worlds all the time. Project Genie's simple concept, though, belies the tech's potential impact. The new system, and the Genie 3 model behind it, have the potential to forever change how videogames are built and played."
"built and played. Model the World Most videogames today rely on a handful of game engines to render their virtual worlds so they look realistic for players. Engines like Unreal and Unity have long dominated the space. To build a game within them, developers first create virtual spaces, populating them with 3D digital models of objects, characters, buildings and the like."
Project Genie uses AI to build virtual worlds and currently requires Google's AI Ultra subscription. The Genie 3 model powers automated generation of environments that could alter workflows and player experiences. Most videogames today rely on a handful of game engines, such as Unreal and Unity, to render realistic worlds. Developers traditionally construct virtual spaces by placing 3D models of objects, characters, buildings, and scenery. Project Genie promises to accelerate or transform those processes by generating spaces algorithmically, potentially reducing manual modeling work and reshaping production pipelines and player interaction with dynamic environments.
