Game AI Revolution NetEase's
TapTechNews June 21, with the continuous advancement of multimodal and AI large model technologies, game AI is also developing in a more intelligent and humanized direction.
On June 19, NetEase's Naraka: Bladepoint mobile game started the Final Victory Beta Test, and announced the launch of the world's first game Copilot AI.
According to the official introduction of NetEase, the world's first game Copilot developed by NetEase Fuxi Studio, which is also based on multimodal technology just like Microsoft's Copilot, and this technology has been used in NetEase's Naraka: Bladepoint mobile game, transforming into an AI teammate fighting side by side with players.
These AI teammates are not traditional NPCs (Non-Player Characters), but intelligent agents that can have real-time voice interaction with players and complete various complex operations in the game.
In the game, AI teammates can have voice conversations with players, providing game guidance, tactical analysis, emotional communication and other services, and this technology can serve those players who suffer from communication barriers and can only play single-player games.
It is known that in the future, AI teammates will also provide personalized game suggestions and companionship methods according to the players' game style, preferences and level. For example, for players who like to attack, the AI teammate will cooperate with its more aggressive tactics; for players who like to defend, the AI teammate will provide more stable operations.
Besides being able to provide game help, AI teammates can also have emotional exchanges with players, such as giving encouragement when the player fails and sharing joy when the player wins.
Based on the optimization of AI language ability by NetEase Fuxi Laboratory, the AI in Naraka: Bladepoint mobile game does not need operations such as wake-up words that affect the sense of substitution, nor does it have the cost of keyword for dialogue learning, players only need to use the voice interaction function in the game, that is, the open mic in the players' mouths, to communicate directly with the AI teammate.
Naraka: Bladepoint mobile game also cooperates with Qualcomm. Models equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen3 flagship platform will use the NPU integrated in the chip to run the voice-related AI model inference at the terminal side, and the AI teammate will have a faster response speed.
TapTechNews learned from the official announcement that the current version is only a test version, and only some of the above functions are opened, and the performance and power consumption are still relatively high. Currently, it only supports human-machine double row and multi-person duel gameplay, and the official promises to iterate and optimize it陆续 in the public beta version.
