The model, called GameNGen, was made by Dani Valevski at Google Research and his colleagues, who declined to speak to New Scientist. According to their paper on the research, the AI can be played for up to 20 seconds while retaining all the features of the original, such as scores, ammunition levels and map layouts. Players can attack enemies, open doors and interact with the environment as usual.

After this period, the model begins to run out of memory and the illusion falls apart.

An AI-generated recreation of the classic computer game Doom can be played normally despite having no computer code or graphics.

After this period, the model begins to run out of memory and the illusion falls apart.

Why are we lying about this? Just because it happens in the AI "black box" doesn't mean it's not producing some kind of code in the background to make this work. They even admit that it "runs out of memory." Huh, last I checked, you'd need to be running code to use memory. The AI itself is made of code! No computer code or graphics, my ass.

Always a good look. /s
