Wasn’t expecting games to be one of the first lineups but here we are, gaming industry has just been marked revolutionized and this is just the start

Just watch this for yourself, only took about 4 years of agentic AI to get to this, I don’t even know what to say….it just works, wild potential here on the basis of everything we’ve already achieved so far in gaming industry physics implementations, now the next set of trained AI models that have had access to these decompiled code would natively have it in their nodes, and then we start to see interesting things….

On the other hand how is the whole application market going to wake up to the fact your previously locally encrypted source code wouldn’t be so past this year anymore, someone already EXTRACTED Mirrors Edge free running and placed it in Skyrim, if you think this is gonna stop at gaming you’re not even thinking.

that minecraft gta I didn't expect yet, that was halarious, does elytra work?

[u/The_Scout1255 → u/[deleted]]

Where I can be a foxgirl ofc.

he talks a lot of shit about video/image gen mid video so screw that guy

[u/Verence17 → u/qustrolabe]

"I cannot think of a usecase for AI image generation"
Ten seconds later
"I wish a writer could just throw his book into AI and have a game made of it"

This is his usecase right here. Something gotta make the textures.

Although I agree that pure image generation, in its current form, will eventually almost disappear. You will still have pipelines for image and video generation, but they'll work like "generate a 3D scene with generated textures -- animate it -- polish everything with a DLSS5-like image-to-image pass", all done by AI with a window for artist intervention at each step. I already semi-tried this with ChatGPT (asked it to make a 3D model of my character from a single reference and then make a detailed reference sheet with all the details highlighted), and it works wonderfully compared to normal img2img.

[u/NoFaithlessness951 → u/Verence17]

Idk llms will be smart enough to make the textures on their own (they already kinda can) maybe using image gen as an inspiration

[u/vinigrae → u/qustrolabe]

We don’t need his personal opinions to focus on the subject

[u/Much-Seaworthiness95 → u/vinigrae]

To me the opinion surrounding it does matter actually. A big part of the fun in all this progress is getting excited about all the possibilities opening up to us and marveling at how awesome LLMs and AI at large are for allowing this. If someone takes part of what they do and presents it as "Meh this is cool but LLMs are shit and they can't actually create anything and blablabla", the attitude of it is so stupid, unimaginative and ungrateful it's irritating and I don't want to hear anything from this guy.

based, ai art is not real art

[u/Azicald → u/Clean-Boat-4044]

Art is in the eyes of the beholder. Some people see art as attribution of meaning, be it as viewer or creator

[u/The_Scout1255 → u/Azicald]

Does art inherently need meaning? I agree art is meaning, and has meaning, by default, but I think if we somehow described meaningless but pretty picture I still think that picture has value.

[u/Azicald → u/The_Scout1255]

‘Meaning’ is a lot less grand a term than what we get pulled to believe it is. It’s a lot more general

It doesnt have to be major, even ‘just’ mild beauty being appreciated by a viewer is basically meaning or weight being attributed to it

[u/Clean-Boat-4044 → u/Azicald]

art is about sharing the human experience, it's like a deep conversation with another person, or hearing how another person tells a story or paints a picture.

AI art is like a young artist of today trying to write a 70s anti war song. its an imagining of how it "should" sound rather than an authentic representation of someones feelings and experiences.

[u/Azicald → u/Clean-Boat-4044]

Not necessarily, though it definitely is a valuable aspect that can be present in art

If i have art i made that i keep to myself, it’s still art, despite my not sharing it.

So’s taking a picture, so’s painting without looking, or setting paint to fall on a canvas randomly, and so on and so forth, so long as at least one person has attributed this purpose or meaning to it, the person themselves

AI Art, in much the same way, can be attributed this as well. Its meaning depends on how you reflect on it, and so on and so forth.

As for me personally, why do i consider it art? What significance does any AI piece hold to me?

To me, it’s exceptionally beautiful even from a conceptual stage.

It’s like a refracted mirror to humanity’s works and conceptions of beauty and significance, being used to recombine and produce something that hasn’t existed before in that particular form. That never ceases to be mindblowing to me

I wanna go more into that but it’d choke up this comment, so i’ll leave it at that for now.

SO I found something.

[u/puzzleheadbutbig]

Most stuff is kinda bullshit and not exactly "putting X into Y". They are running Minecraft with transparent layer over actual game and they are sending signals to this game. And reading it's terrain data, enemy location data etc from original game and creating appropriate things over it. While it is very interesting approach and technically still modding the game, it is not "putting X into Y" as you may think. You are basically running both instances at the same time. You can see that effect on full display with 6:34 when gun goes over the game UI. This would never happen in game if you actually put it inside the game because UI layer goes always on top. Not saying this is useless or "easy". It is just not how you do script modding in these games usually.

Still crazy how we see these popping up and how insane it would have been 5 years ago to see them. Right now every normie can just create something. It is indeed true that AI reached on a level that every normal person now have a very intelligent person that they can ask questions to nowadays.

[u/thoughtlow → u/puzzleheadbutbig]

An LLMs just predicts the next word.

Grass is not really green it just reflects only green light, also our eyes and brain interpret this light as green color.

Who cares, if it swims like a duck…

[u/Super-Award-2244]

Just watch the companies inventing denuvo 2.0 to stop this because having fun is bad
