Here we go! A neural network is now generating games!

Google researchers have developed GameNGen – an AI model capable of simulating the classic game DOOM in real time, generating more than 20 frames per second and creating visual effects that are almost indistinguishable from the original game.

The AI was trained on 900 million frames of gameplay data, resulting in playtesters receiving 3-second clips that closely resemble the actual game.

Running on a single TPU, GameNGen handles the 3D environment and fast pace of Doom without a game engine. Each frame is predicted by a diffusion model.

Could AI soon be capable of generating entire video games?
