With the rise of modern AI technology, various applications have become more and more extensive, and it also includes game-related fields. Just recently, a senior module designer used related technologies to create a new module that allows players to “talk” to game NPCs through the microphone for the popular Rockstar Games game “Grand Theft Auto 5”. Called “Sentient Streets,” it’s a new story-oriented mod created by designer Bloc, who previously created a similar mod for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. According to Bloc’s introduction to this new set of modules, the NPCs in “Sentient Streets” are driven by more than 30 AI models, allowing players to have more real-time conversations and interactions with various NPCs, whether they are policemen, evil Christians or other ordinary passers-by. In addition to briefly introducing the operation of this set of modules, Bloc also showed the actual use process through a video. Players can see him operating a police character and walking to the game scene of “Grand Theft Auto 5” Dialogue and interaction with three other police NPCs on the streets of “Los Santos”. In the first story mission of this mod, the policeman played by the player must choose his partner. And the player only needs to walk up to the fellow NPCs, press T to attract their attention, and then press N to talk directly to them through the microphone, ask them various questions, etc. The AI technology behind these NPCs analyzes these questions and answers them according to the characters’ personalities and background settings. Interestingly, each police NPC has its own personality, one is friendly, one is tough, and the third is very flirtatious. On the other hand, the AI that appears in this “Sentient Streets” mod is generated by Inworld AI technology, which is an AI engine specially designed to drive virtual characters. As for the voices of these NPCs, they are automatically generated using the “text-to-speech” technology software developed by ElevenLabs. And this latest module developed by Bloc is just one of many plans that the module designer intends to introduce AI technology into the game field, allowing players to talk to NPCs at will and get a variety of answers. Non-fixed dialogue options. Just earlier this year, Nvidia officially launched a new set of tools called Nvidia Ace for game developers, using AI-driven natural language interaction to bring higher intelligence to the NPC in the game, thereby revolutionizing the players. gaming experience. Nvidia Ace introduced a large number of “optimized AI basic models” to help game developers create their own background and personality for each AI NPC, import speech recognition and text-to-speech technology, plus lifelike faces Automatic animation generation technology. Although players have seen many independent developers or mods adopt AI technology, the exploration of related fields by large game companies is still quite limited at this stage, but they can still look forward to the future development of this technology in the game field.
