AI to Feature in Ethereum Game-Based Series

An AI model will be developed for a series based on an Ethereum game, capable of generating spaceships, backgrounds, and other settings, according to Decrypt. 

The upcoming sci-fi television show “Space Nation” is being created from the MMORPG game Space Nation Online, which operates on the L2 network Immutable zkEVM. It is being developed under the guidance of Roland Emmerich (director of “Independence Day,” “2012,” and “Stargate”) and Marco Weber (producer of “Igby Goes Down” and “The Thirteenth Floor”).

While exploring AI application options, the team received presentations from major startups like OpenAI but decided against their offers. Instead, they turned to the firm Cybever, which will create a neural network specifically for the project. 

“The people at Cybever have already started working on this. Alongside our development process, they will receive some scripts to see what we are creating. We really want to create specific AI software for the production of this [series],” commented Weber.

Cybever is a California-based AI company focused on developing AI models for video games. Its product’s beta version, launched in September, allows for the generation of 3D landscapes, scenes, and worlds on the Unreal Engine 5. 

“Space Nation” is scheduled for release in early 2027. 

Back in the day, 86-year-old director Ridley Scott, known for films like “Gladiator,” “Alien,” and “Blade Runner,” saw AI’s potential in reducing production costs and unlocking new creative possibilities in animation.
