The Honkai: Star Rail team at HoYoverse has revealed that AI was used in the development of some aspects of the role-playing game.
Do you know that AI is used in Honkai: Star Rail supplement development?
Honkai: Star Rail is a huge game with ambitious expansion plans. It’s built by a team of over 500 people, but given the project’s scope, it’s not surprising that some artificial intelligence (AI) techniques were used to fine-tune otherwise handcrafted design elements.
In a recent interview, the HoYoverse team revealed that they utilized artificial intelligence techniques to create the Honkai: Star Rail characters, in particular their “facial appearance and behavioral patterns.” The development team probably wanted to make the players feel even more immersed in the world of the RPG by improving the quality of their interactions with the various characters they encounter.
In response to players’ concerns that HoYoverse will abuse artificial intelligence, the developer has assured them that this is not the case. In the interview, the developers revealed that no artificial intelligence technology were used during the creation of Honkai: Star Rail’s story, and that they still think AI techniques shouldn’t be used in certain parts of the game.
Despite the negative connotations often attached to artificial intelligence (AI), it may be of interest to HoYoverse fans to learn how major corporations can use AI methods in a morally responsible way. There’s no denying that AI has potential to boost the video game industry. Hopefully, HoYoverse’s current stance will appease the players and will not have an impact on Honkai: Star Rail‘s future or the company’s upcoming projects.
