      @@txorimorea3869 That's usually how it happens. The democratization and proliferation of advanced programming techniques can break the log-jam of corporate self-interest. An advanced technique may be considered not worth the time and effort compared to using older techniques and iterating just enough to work a bit better, but give that new tech to a small group and they can afford to play around with ways of implementing new techniques.
      The tools and progressing AI techniques are already starting to flip the script (i.e.Unreal engine Nanite and lighting) on the game industry. Now individual game designers don't necessarily need big math degrees to make a game at least look AAA since most of the work is already done under the hood. With increasingly freely available 3D asset collections, some dude with time at home can have a brilliant game idea without getting bogged down with the soul-destroying creation of hundreds of assets, or other big jobs like animating characters using traditional motion capture techniques, now that an AI can do much of the heavy lifting.
      Most of the games I get the most time out of before getting bored are independently created by small companies or individuals. The AAA games are mostly just railroad movies that you get the illusion of freedom while being largely scripted towards predictable results.

    Anything that prevents people from making animations is a massive win. You can have the nicest looking model, but if you keyframe it by hand; and I don't care if that includes inverse kinematics with sanity constraints on joint angles doing the heavy lifting for you; it's going to have Half-life 1 levels of jankyness. In Half-life 1 that was OK, the models looked janky too, but today it really sticks out. If a human animates it, the center of mass motion and angular momentum will change in ways which do no correspond to forces that could plausibly be applied by the muscles with that joint orientation. It's very hard to tell what even is wrong when looking at the animation; you can just tell that it's awful, if you find out what's wrong it's even harder to actually do something to make it better.
    When you physically simulate the characters you get correct looking motion by default, but the hard part that this AI is solving is how to get from one desired location and pose to another desired location and pose in a given amount of time. I'm already looking forward to a new generation of Bethesda bugs where the AI has fallen and can't get back up.

      On that thought, my first thought when seeing this is that I think a lot of work should be put into recovering, rather than just staying in the game. If an object falls over, it should be able to recover well, otherwise it will be a highly critical flaw in the game/art, getting stuck in a fallen state sometimes by being unlucky. Even a beetle on its back usually finds a way up. Evolution took care of that. So it seems unnatural when it can't - and obviously frustrating if it's a character controlled by or allied to the player.

    I have done something very similar in my bachelor thesis 10 years ago. I pretty much failed and could barely train the AI to do a few steps & simple jumps before falling over xD Cool to see how far this got now.
    This technology will be very important for future VR. In regular games the player character and NPC's play fixed animations independent of the physics simulation. This doesn't work in VR though because you usually control your virtual character directly via your own movement and the game can't just move you to play an animation. In the future these animations will be replaced with physics and an AI control the body of an NPC. This is very similar in complexity to controlling a real world humanoid robot.

    I think Karoly missed the main point of this paper, which is that these are *physically simulated* characters.
    The whole "predict the future" thing is done in order to achieve this. At 2:50 he makes it sound as if copying the reference motion seems silly, and that what this thing *really* does is predict the future motion.
    No, copying the reference motion *is* the point, and the future prediction is made in order to do this. Only, it isn't simply copying - it is *driving the joint motor torques such that the resulting physically simulated pose matches the kinematic (non-simulated) pose*. This is the challenging problem that was tackled. This has been tackled before as well, but the new idea in this paper was to use supervised learning instead of reinforcement learning to do this, which I also didn't see mentioned anywhere.

    • @GS-tk1hk
      @GS-tk1hk 2 роки тому +3

      The summary at 4:12 is also off - this method does not create higher quality animation, it tracks already made (or mocapped) animations with a physics driven character. The character controller is also just a regular character controller that controls the kinematic reference pose - it is not created by this method, it's just that this method allows a physically simulated character to follow the reference pose, and hence be controlled. The controller is likely based off motion matching, since this is Ubisoft we're talking about.

      Yeah but considering his channel is supposed to be informative and providing learning content, spreading misinformation is not great. 90% of the people in this comment section think this new system will allow indie devs to create animations from scratch, which is total nonsense. Clearly this is bad. I tried to find a way to reach out to Karoly, since I am sure he cares about the quality of its content and accuracy of the information he provides, but I could not find a proper way... And i doubt he will read all these comments and find the two ones of people with more experience in the field criticizing the content.

    The thing most exciting about this to me is what indie creators will be able to do. Small scale game development will be able to do so much more with this type of tech in a short amount of time and more cheaply. It allows indie games scope and detail to increase without much trouble

    Impressive. Though the AI dog's rear right leg looked weird. Like it was extended further then in should be when turning. Though I guess if the simulated floor had low enough friction (like a kitchen floor) the dog's outer rear foot could slide outwards while doing a running turn, causing an extended leg. Perhaps the demo should have a texture for the floor so the viewer knows roughly how much friction it has.

    While this looks super promising for future games _(not just in itself, but as a precedent or potential inspiration for other developers),_ it also has the possibility of being under-utilized by the industry for years just like Euphoria-powered animations

    I'm not sure I understand... how many frames forward is the AI predicting things? ...Basically we're giving it a set of keyframes (taken from mocap data) and it's interpolating (with physics) between them, right? How many keyframes per second are there? Impressive stuff thanks for sharing

    This is going to make motion tracking a more lucrative thing for a while, and then it'll be gone because A.I.s will do in faster and for significantly cheaper. Companies who make motion tracking animations are going to have to develop their own motion tracking A.I.s to keep their businesses going.
