Summary
Microsoft Research has unveiled Muse, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that creates new scenarios in video games, following up to seven years of gameplay.
While the technology is not intended to replace human game designers, it could offer inspiration and content for game developers.
Trained on gameplay sessions from Microsoft’s Bleeding Edge, Muse can generate gameplay scenarios that follow the rules and physics of the game, and it is adaptable to different styles and themes.
Although it requires large amounts of data, smaller game studios could benefit from access to the technology in the future.
It could also have potential applications in the real world, helping with the redesign of kitchens or building layouts, for example.
