This week, I was granted access to a new interactive gaming experience that Runway plans to make available<\/a> to everyone as soon as next week, according to CEO Crist\u00f3bal Valenzuela. The consumer-facing product is currently quite barebones, with a chat interface that supports only text and image generation, but Valenzuela says that generated video games are coming later this year. He says that Runway is also in talks with gaming companies about both using its technology and accessing their datasets for training.<\/p>\n

Based on his recent conversations, Valenzuela believes the gaming industry is in a similar position to Hollywood when it was first introduced to generative AI. There was considerable resistance, but over time, AI has been gradually adopted in more areas of the production process. Valenzuela says Amazon\u2019s recent show, House of David, was made in part with Runway\u2019s technology, and that his company is working with \u201cpretty much every major studio\u201d and \u201cmost of the Fortune 100 companies.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cIf we can help a studio make a movie 40 percent faster, then we\u2019re probably gonna be able to help developers of games make games faster,\u201d he says. \u201cThey\u2019re waking up, and they\u2019re moving faster than I would say the studios were moving two years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Naturally, I couldn\u2019t let Valenzuela get off our Zoom call without asking him about his recent acquisition talks<\/a> with Zuckerberg: \u201cI think we have more interesting intellectual challenges being independent, and remaining independent for now.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This week, I was granted access to a new interactive gaming experience that Runway plans to make available…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223222,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3163],"tags":[323,1942,77,1583,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-223221","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-gaming","12":"tag-technology","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114765068047170922","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223221"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223221\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
