Summary

  • Leaked footage shows a prototype AI system that uses OpenAI and Chat-GPT to make a video game character hold a conversation with players.
  • The technology combines OpenAI’s Whisper for speech-to-text, GPT-4 and Llama 3 for language, and Sony’s own voice and facial animation tech.
  • The character featured in the footage is Aloy from Horizon Forbidden West, and the presentation is from Sony’s PlayStation Studios Advanced Technology Group.
  • According to the developer, the AI conversation mechanism is still in the prototype stage, and the video was removed at the request of Sony after it was disseminated on The Verge.
  • The gaming industry is continually developing AI to improve player interactions, with AI and chatbots increasingly being used to enhance gameplay and in-game storytelling.
  • This new Sony technology aims to create a new layer of immersion in interactive entertainment.
