AI Roblox Assistant Transforms Game Development Understanding

At the annual conference of the developers Roblox (Roblox Developers Conference, RDC) 2023, the company announced a new tool for the creators of the content – AISSISTICER Roblox Assistant, designed to simplify the process of creating virtual worlds and coding using generative artificial intelligence.

Roblox Assistant allows developers to enter text commands to generate virtual environments. For example, the input of the phrase “I want to create a game whose action takes place in ancient ruins” automatically adds stone columns covered with moss and destroyed architecture to the stage. The command “repauna point around fire chair” instructs Roblox to use assets either from its trading platform or its own library of visual users.

Roblox said that in the future Roblox Assistant will be able to create complex game mechanics and even 3D models from scratch. However, such a prospect is of concern that AI can take work from the Roblox developers community. The company representative in response to this concern stated that generative AI would reduce the dependence of content creators on specific technical skills and allow them to stand out with their unique creative approach.

In addition to Roblox Assistant, the company introduced other AI tools. One of them allows you to create an avatar according to the image and text request. The tool is scheduled for release in 2024. Another tool uses AI to modulate voice chats in real time, which should reduce the level of toxicity on the platform.

Roblox relies on artificial intelligence to make the process of creating content more affordable and effective. Despite the fears of possible job loss, the company is confident that AI technologies will only enhance the creative potential of developers. It is expected that Roblox Assistant will be launched at the end of 2023 or early 2024, and many are eagerly awaiting how this technology will change the development landscape in Roblox.
