Microsoft says it has developed a new generative AI model that can produce "complex gameplay sequences."

The Xbox maker's Research Game Intelligence team debuted the World and Human Action Model (WHAM), which it has nicknamed Muse, earlier today and described it as a "generative AI model of a video game that can generate game visuals, controller actions, or both."

It’s not for game developers, it’s to convince capital that they should keep funding Microsoft’s data center expansions. Keep funding the methane companies that provide the power for them.

All hype, No bite.

I didn't read the article, but I came to comment on the way that TV is mounted on an easel and is pointed at the ceiling. I'm sure that's a wonderful viewing experience.

I'm glad someone focuses on the important facts. The way they are sitting sideways to the TV will surely give them sore necks.

That is it. I've lost all respect from Microsoft.

Okay but these models are actually pretty interesting when you dive in. Useful yet? Not by a long shot (I’m guessing decades, not years of work). But interesting nonetheless.

I just want an ai model that categorises player types and explains to me what and why makes certain types like some mechanics. It's not useful in the least to generate visuals

What? I read that three times and it still doesn't make sense.

When you make games one of the hardest part is figuring out what works best for gamers that don't like the same things as you, if that makes sense. I feel like a model could help with things adjacent to that
