Imagine bullying a merchant into giving you free trades

[SnChn]

You can see every pore on the AI face and yet not a single human expression

It is like my childhood dream, to be able to talk to an NPC. But in hands of NVIDIA this will be another vendor lock-in technology. Like they did with DLSS.

[DeSinc]

wake me up when the npc can say anything other than "That's an interesting question. While some might say there's merit to that idea, others would argue the risks outweigh the benefits. It's important to maintain a researched, balanced viewpoint with things. 🤖" 😐

"This is going to make videogames alive" Shows the most liveless uncanny and devoid of personality models possible.

The disconnect with the consumer market is insane. We just want good games

[iljun]

I want my video games to look like games, not realistic. My life is ultra realistic already in high difficulty.

[ShahabEslamian]

I'm looking forward for my friends to stop acting like NPCs once they see this in video game

[calvinjluther]

What if, here me out, what if instead of doing all this work to make some dogshit that's "realistic" or whatever, they made games that were fun?

[zepher]

Half-life 2 facial animation is all I need. I would much prefer if the devs focus more on other facets of the game itself.

[TheTastyTender]

Stop trying to make games real life, just make games fun again

[spacesciencelab]

Imagine a game being less of a NPC than you.

[hvglaser]

This will enable a new level of scams and propaganda

[itchkaweasel]

Skyrim is about to become the best selling game for the 20th year

[PZMaTTy]

It's not a 4b model, it's called Nemotron 4 but it's a 340b parameters model

[grakengaur]

So you're telling me those ads on the hub the requires your credit card can finally be real and offline?!

[Kawitamamayi]

Great!
Next let us know when speech to expressed physical emotion becomes a thing. NPCs talk and converse but their face muscles, eye motions, body movements are expressively “flat.” Additionally facial and body movement expressions can be congruent or incongruent with the thoughts & speech of the speaker. Further still some people have expressive “tells” which to an acute observer communicate concealed information.
For NPCs to be even more real there must be a full spectrum of communication, some overtly expressed, some physical expressed both by face and body movement, and sometimes-per character- a subtle speech pattern change, eye movement, facial tic, body motion that gives a hint to the character’s true feelings or thoughts.

I don’t ever want to physically talk to an npc with my own voice and I think most of us gamers feel the same way

[Aaron_LH]

Fast forward 10 years and you’ll be able to just generate an entire ass AAA game with a fkn text prompt. Kill me.

This will take another 10 years to mature and actually be good, and another 5 years after that for any developer to use it.
