[QUOTE="Admin, post: 64463, member: 1"] Nvidia, one of the tech companies leading the AI arms race, continues to find new ways to implement artificial intelligence. Today, the company announced that its AI-powered system, ACE, will make its gaming debut next year. In [URL='https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/mecha-break-nvidia-ace-nims-rtx-pc-laptop-games-apps/']a blog post[/URL], Nvidia confirmed that Seasun Games' upcoming action project, Mecha BREAK, will be the first game to use this new AI-powered system. Nvidia ACE was revealed by Nvidia co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang at Computex 2023, and will fuse gaming and AI in a new way by using generative AI (GenAI) in NPCs to make them more interactive than possible. Nvidia notes in the blog post that thanks to ACE, Mecha BREAK players can "interact via natural language" with the in-game NPCs. In a demo provided by Nvidia, you can see ACE being shown off in Mecha BREAK; the NPCs will be able to "see gamers and identify people and objects in the real world" by using both your webcam as well as OpenAI's ChatGPT-4o large language model (LLM). Interestingly, Nvidia revealed that Mecha BREAK would use Nvidia's Audio2Face-3D NIM and Whisper, along with OpenAI's auto-speech recognition model, to provide facial animation and speech recognition. Elevenlabs will power the characters' voices via the cloud. However, the video demo displayed the NPCs responding in a monotone voice.
