Comment on New AI model can hallucinate a game of 1993’s Doom in real time

“Can it run Doom?”
“Sure, do you have spare datacenter or two full of GPUs?”
To be fair, half of the AAA gaming industry is all about trying to clone the latest successful game with a new coat of paint. Maybe using AI to make these clones will mean that the talented people behind the scenes are free to explore other ideas instead.
Of course in reality, it just means that the largest publishers will lay off a whole lot of people and keep churning out these uninspired games in the name of corporate profits, but it’s nice to dream sometimes.
big weird flex but okay vibes except actually not okay
left me stunlocked with this one icl
I mean, you’ve never seen a purple elephant with a tennis racket. None of that exists in the data set since elephants are neither purple nor tennis players. Exposure to all the individual elements allows for generation of concepts outside the existing data, even though they don’t exit in reality or in the data set.
Ok.
Try to get an image generator to create an image of a tennis racket, with all racket-like objects removed from the training data.
Explain the concept to it with words alone.
That’s the problem you’ll run into the second you want to realize a new game genre.
There are more forms of guidance than just raw words. Just off the top of my head, there’s inpainting, outpainting, controlnets, prompt editing, and embeddings. The researchers who pulled this off definitely didn’t do it with text prompts.
Obviously.
But at what point does that guidance just become the dataset you removed?

Shhhh! Are you nuts? People are going to start realizing this is another tech bubble, like Blockchain…
