Forza Motorsport 5 - Xbox One Cloud Offers 600% More AI Capability

  01:01 PM - August 1, 2013 by Steve_OS


OXM sat down with Turn 10's studio manager Alan Hartman and creative director Dan Greenawalt, as they talk about how smart the AI can be in Forza Motorsport 5.

Quote:
Turn 10 is particularly chuffed at being able to make use of Xbox One's cloud computing support for its much-sung Drivatar AI system, which trades out pre-scripted computer drivers for cloud-stored entities that learn from player behaviour. Greenawalt described the ability to offload such tasks to servers as a "tremendous opportunity".

"When you've got a learning neural network, more computing power is nothing but helpful. Because what you're able to do is process a lot more information, and you don't have to do it in realtime on the box. And that frees up more of the box to be doing graphics or audio or other computational areas.

"So we can now make our AI instead of just being 20%, 10% of the box's capability, we can make it 600% of the box's capability," he went on. "Put it in the cloud and free up that 10% or 20% to make the graphics better - on a box that's already more powerful than we worked on before."
