AI-powered game characters
Berman introduces NVIDIA ACE and his expectation that digital humans could change games.
Remember NVIDIA ACE and those striking digital humans? I think this kind of technology could change video games by making characters feel more alive. This video is part of an NVIDIA partnership, as disclosed in its description.
Model, speech and animation
He describes an on-device language model and the speech and facial-animation components of the character pipeline.
Game developers can use NVIDIA ACE to build AI-powered non-player characters. The Nemotron-4 4B Instruct model can run locally on RTX hardware, giving a character a language model for responding to a player.
The character pipeline can combine Riva automatic speech recognition, natural-language processing, text-to-speech and Audio2Face facial animation. Together, these components can turn spoken input into an answer with a moving face; the exact services and where they run depend on the implementation.
Mecha BREAK and online demo
He points to an early game showcase and NVIDIA’s online digital-human experience. The video description identifies him as an NVIDIA partner.
NVIDIA presented Mecha BREAK as an early showcase for its digital-human technology. The company’s 2024 showcase used an on-device language model and animation, with speech recognition on-device and voice synthesis in the cloud. I also point viewers to an NVIDIA online digital-human experience and its AI Decoded blog for more details.
