Google's AI-Powered Game Engine Simulates Doom in Real Time
GameNGen, developed by Google and Tel Aviv University, uses neural networks to recreate the classic video game without traditional coding.
- GameNGen generates Doom gameplay at 20 frames per second using AI image synthesis.
- The AI model was trained on 900 million frames of Doom gameplay footage.
- GameNGen can simulate complex game states, including health, ammo, and enemy interactions.
- The technology could lower game development costs and make the process more accessible.
- Researchers acknowledge limitations, such as visual glitches and short memory retention.
