Our most exciting episode of Training Data yet 🍓🍰 @OpenAI’s o1 represents a major leap forward by giving models time to "think." Inference-time compute is the next big research frontier. Thrilled to have @polynoamial, @ilge, and @hunterlightman on the show @gradypb @sequoia

After trying Cursor, I realize the value of 80% of my technical skills dropped to zero. The leverage for the remaining 20% of skills went up by at least 10x.

Google presents Diffusion Models Are Real-Time Game Engines discuss: huggingface.co/papers/2408.1… We present GameNGen, the first game engine powered entirely by a neural model that enables real-time interaction with a complex environment over long trajectories at high quality. GameNGen can interactively simulate the classic game DOOM at over 20 frames per second on a single TPU. Next frame prediction achieves a PSNR of 29.4, comparable to lossy JPEG compression. Human raters are only slightly better than random chance at distinguishing short clips of the game from clips of the simulation. GameNGen is trained in two phases: (1) an RL-agent learns to play the game and the training sessions are recorded, and (2) a diffusion model is trained to produce the next frame, conditioned on the sequence of past frames and actions. Conditioning augmentations enable stable auto-regressive generation over long trajectories.

Continuing our daily podcasts this week, we sat down with Execution Labs' Jason Della Rocca to talk about the biggest challenges facing indies today, from the decline of indie publishers to the ongoing search for funding gamesindustry.biz/the-bigges…

Happy to share the pre-print of our new #chiplay2024 paper about the intersection of generative AI and indie game development (with my awesome PhD student @ruchipanch)! Really look forward to discussing our findings at #chiplay2024! guof.people.clemson.edu/pape…

In einer Folge von #DasWarMorgen des #SWRkultur wird eine dystopische Zukunft thematisiert, in der Spiel zentral in der Gesellschaft ist. Die besprochenen Aspekte sind interessant, dennoch wird #Gamification / #GameDesign mit Willkür verwechselt. @ARDde ardaudiothek.de/episode/das-…
