An "AI Board" PCI Express; something you would be interested to buy? (lemmy.ca)

The Nvidia NV1 was released in 1995, it was the first GPU with 3D capabilities for PC... form there we know how things went by.

Now it's 2023, so let's make some "retro futuristic" prediction... what would you think about a AI board, open source driver, open API as Vulkan which you can buy to power the AI for your videogames? It would make sense to you? Which price range it should be?

What's supposed to do for your games... well, that's depend on videogames. The quickiest example I can think of is having endless discussion with your NPC in your average, single player, Fantasy RPG.

For example, the videogame load your 4~5 companions with the psychology/behaviors: they are fixated with the main quest goal (like you talk with fanatic people, this to make sure the game the main quest is as much stable as possible) but you can "break them" by making attempt to reveal some truths (for example, breaking the fourth wall), and if you go for this path, the game warns that you're probably going to lock out the main quest (like in Morrowind when you kill essential NPC)

Yeah, so, dedicated hardware like that rarely ever pans out. I mean, graphics cards did, but there's not much of a market for gaming sound cards or physX cards anymore. I imagine that the specific type of AI that will be useful for this will eventually just be improved and made efficient enough that it'll be done by processors that already exist in your system.

Yeah, like GPUs, which is basically what most LLMs are designed to run on now.
