Nvidia debuted a new AI tool at Computex Taipei that targets the video game experience. One video game alone can have dozens — if not hundreds — of non-player characters, or NPCs. These characters will also be able to generate facial expressions based on the audio inputs they receive, Nvidia said. What separates this brief interaction from encounters in other video games is the way Jin reacts and responds to the player. "Although he is an NPC, Jin replies to natural language queries realistically and consistent with the narrative backstory — all with the help of generative AI," Nvidia said in its press release.
