  • NVIDIA ACE for Games is a new foundry for intelligent in-game characters powered by generative AI. Developers of middleware, tools, and games can use NVIDIA ACE for Games to build and deploy customized speech, conversation, and animation AI models in their software and games.
    Watch our NVIDIA Kairos demo, showcasing how NVIDIA partnered with Convai to help optimize and integrate ACE for Games modules into an immersive and dynamic interaction with a non playable character named Jin. The demo is also enhanced with ray tracing and performance multiplying NVIDIA DLSS 3.

I implore you to please use storytellers to create scenarios for demos like this, to breath some life into the character, and show them doing a little smalltalk interaction before assigning a side quest. That's the whole point us using AI for characters in the first place. To make them feel and react like humans.

    Many individuals critiquing this might not fully grasp the significance of what's unfolding here. It's monumental! This represents the future of dialogue-driven AI, taking charge of every non-playable character within a gaming universe.
    I often find myself being critical of the content shared on this platform, but this particular video compelled me to reply. At present, our gaming worlds are populated with hundreds, sometimes thousands, of NPCs spewing out predetermined dialogues, serving little to no purpose beyond their scripted roles. Let's consider GTA V - an incredible game but held back by the lack of substantial interaction with NPCs beyond a couple of repetitive lines. Not immersive at all.
    Now, envision a scenario where every seemingly inconsequential NPC has a unique backstory, a set role, a distinct purpose. What if you could engage in meaningful conversations about the game world with any character you encounter? The scale of impact this could have is astounding.
    Consider exploring the world of Cyberpunk 2077, where every interaction doesn't merely fall into the confines of a few prewritten dialogues. Instead, you could engage in diverse discussions about the intricacies of the world around you. This could revolutionize immersion in gaming like never before. I am excited!
    It's relatively effortless to dismiss the initial versions of technology. Take the case of RTX, and see the remarkable journey it's undergone from its infancy. Remember the debut of DLSS? Today, it's universally used by anyone who can access it.
    Allow the technology to mature and witness its potential unfold. It's always easy to hate online to get likes.

      It sounds almost like we're talking about NFTs and crypto. The arguments are pretty much the same.

      You probably also criticized RTX or DLSS when they were introduced.
      As we converse, I believe game developers are exploring ways to incorporate this into their projects.
      In a decade, this could very well be standard - numerous NPCs, each with engaging narratives relevant to the game world, helping the character advance in the story.

      @okinawagaijin9344 Рік тому +11

      From how I understand it, it's more showcasing "autonomous" AI NPC. The purpose is to have AI take control of NPCs by giving them a form of roleplay. "You are Kai, a Ramen Shop owner in a crime ridden district of city X" and AI builds the character around these instructions and engages in custom dialogue it makes up as the game goes on.
      Think of it like this: instead of NPCs running on pre-written scripts with voice actors recording a few hundred lines, it will run on a neural network and use speech synthesis to produce near infinite possible results when interacting with the NPC.
      If that tech gets to the right point, you could basically just invent human backstories (or even have AI create those in the thousands without much input) and then give each NPC in your game a backstory, put an AI and tell it "here, that's you, go, live."
      Basically an attempt at simulating real humans via AI in a game environment. Still sounds like science fiction to me.

How about saying "Hey Jin, how much did you pay for that hat?" or "I found a booger underneath this bar chair, damn that's gross"... I mean, he should be able to respond within parameters - and it'd be key to making the NPC's more lifelike.

For example, you train an npc to answer questions on politics in a game. Devs would have to write tens of thousands of lines to train the AI on, or just use real world data which is easier and will make the AI sound more realistic but runs the risk of the AI suddenly going on a rant about Trump in your medieval fighting game.

      Yes, it is a real problem. But one possible approach would be to use broad real-world data and heavily restrict it. That's what the chat GPT already does. If you ask it to create a bomb, it will refuse to respond. However, ChatGPT aims to be a comprehensive AI, so it's difficult for OpenAI to impose heavy restrictions. In a game, on the other hand, where an NPC's objective is more focused, it is easier to limit. At any sign of a player discussing real-world politics, the AI could respond that it knows nothing about the subject. Still, some players would certainly be able to "break" the AI, but it wouldn't be as easy.

Otherwise you'd have to input audio, still analyse it and determine what is said. Then formulate a response. The best we can do is probably live transcribing. So the AI could in theory interrupt you as it transcribes each word as it's said and then can interject mid sentence. Turning the audio to text is just how it works.

    I'd love to be able tell an npc, "hey look behind you" and rather than point or them look generally behind them, they infer where to look depending on where your eyes glance.

The Skyrim demo of this tech for example use stuff that was not developed to work in the best possible way together what ended with a 8 second delay. I bet the speech to text generation at the Skyrim demo started after the user stopped speaking and not run convert the text that was spoken directly after it as the user still talks. That would reduce a lot of lag. Maybe the same is on the text to speech side possible. But no clue if NVidia use such stuff.
