- AMD has patented an AI-Based Game and Rendering Engine.
- The engine could rival the likes of Unreal Engine and other technologies by leveraging AI.
- AMD’s patent states that the technology would deliver cutting-edge visuals while reducing computational costs.
AI has impacted all segments of the gaming industry, with PlayStation being the latest to confirm plans to go all-in on the technology.
Others like Capcom are also embracing the technology, and a new AMD patent hints yet again at how AI could completely revolutionize games as we know them. According to the patent spotted by Cheat Happens, AMD could eventually release a fully AI-based game engine.
Why it matters: Despite its many setbacks, the industry has adopted Unreal Engine as the mainstream technology of choice for developers. AI tools could allow AMD to rival the mainstream adoption of technology like Unreal Engine.
The patent, named AI-Based Game and Rendering Engine, showcases how AMD aims to deliver realistic visuals while cutting down computational costs. To do so, AMD intends to utilize neural extrapolation, smart upscaling, and more.
According to the patent, detailed images and content could be made from scratch, thanks to using simplified stick figures at first. This is where the AI components would come in, handling the processing associated with a traditional platform like Unreal Engine.
The patent itself is quite in-depth, and there’s no telling when AMD will make such a technology available to mainstream developers. However, it certainly presents one of the more interesting use cases for AI in the games industry.
Follow this link to take a look at the full details of the patent, which describes in detail how the AI-based game engine would function.
