It’s amazing to see how far generative AI has come, creating a playable version of Doom without any code. This could open up endless possibilities for game development and creative projects.
Clickbaiting journalists should be sued for misleading the general public.
“…despite having no computer code or graphics.”
So doom for blind people?
This is neat. I doubt there’s going to be this “OMG I’m going to use a text prompt to make a new game and earn millions!” drive, but the technology seems like it could be really useful for rendering engines. If it can predict moves (IE render next frames based on your actions) to the extend it can generate things live, you can cheat stuff like ray tracing. That’s already happening, sure, but using AI to bake volumetic lighting for reflections as you move past them seems like a possibility to expand on.
this is the last place you should post this lol this sub is retarded when it come to ai XD
Except it didn’t. It created 20 seconds of Doom-like simulated gameplay, not a copy of Doom.
It’s funny how one of the games back then people considered overly violent is now used as a benchmark
Runs out of memory within 20 seconds. This will never get taken seriously for a long time. Our devices don’t have the capacity to even consider this.
Doom’s source code was open sourced a long time ago.
It’s not surprising a search-engine like model can produce a game for which **it has access to the source code**.
If it had created, so, Crysis, for which source code isn’t available, it’d be a story.
>hinting that generative AI could be used to create games from scratch in future
The last game I worked on work ended abruptly in December. The last thing a guy on my team, (a 36 year industry veteran) had said to me was “Wait and see. Within a couple of years we’ll see AI take over, and the game industry will be in the toilet.”
When I asked him why he thinks that, he said “Anyone will be able to generate a game with a prompt. The market will be flooded by AI drivel and the result will be a race to the bottom of how much content can be pushed out without attention to quality.”
As I’m still looking for my next gig 9 months later, I think about that often.
why run doom on a potato when you can run it on the power consumption of a medium sized country?
I wonder if it works like real-life dreams. You enter a room that seems to be logically disconnected from the room you just left, and if you go back, you end up in a different room altogether.
Absolutely get fucked, copyright!
No future in art ever again, yay!
