Blizzard Patents neural network that generates textures for games
Blizzard Entertainment wants to simplify the creation of graphic elements for games. The Gamerant portal drew attention to the fact that the company has filed a patent for a technology that allows using AI to generate textures and other similar game assets.
It is assumed that artists will be able to sketch textures and transmit them to the Blizzard neural network. Based on these sketches and the entered queries, the neural network will generate the necessary image.
Blizzard is going to train a neural network on already existing images. It is unknown when the company will present its technology and whether it will present it at all.
