NVIDIA has introduced Avatar Cloud Engine (ACE), a technology that lets gamers have natural conversations with non-playable characters (NPCs) in games. The company showcased the tech at Computex 2023 with a demo called Kairos, where a player chats with an NPC named Jin in a futuristic Ramen shop.
The demo shows how the player can ask Jin about his life and get relevant answers. For example, the player says: “Hey Jin, how are you?” Jin replies: “Unfortunately, not so good. I am worried about the crime around here. It’s gotten bad lately. My ramen shop got caught in the crossfire.”
