Where’s the part where they have people play with the game engine? Isn’t that what they supposedly are running, a game engine? Sounds like what they really managed to do was recreate the video of someone playing Doom which is yawn.

right! without that, all they can show they’re outputting is averaged, imperfect video fragments of a bunch of doom runs. and maybe it’s cool (for somebody) that they can output those at a relatively high frame rate? but that’s sure as fuck not the conclusion they forced — the “an AI model can simulate doom’s engine” bullshit that ended up blowing up my notifications for a couple days when the people in my life who know I like games but don’t know I hate horseshit decided I’d love to hear about this revolutionary research they saw on YouTube
