これは、BethesdaのFalloutシリーズやRockstarのRed Dead RedemptionやGrand Theft Autoのようなオープンワールドゲームで特に強力です。これらのタイトルは、深いストーリーテリングと豊かな環境で知られており、初期の決定が後の結果を形作ることをすでに可能にしています。会話型AIを統合することで、デベロッパーは新しいインタラクティブ性の層を追加し、ユニークな対話、隠されたイースターエッグ、ダイナミックなストーリーラインをリプレイごとに解放できます。
Chess.com Gives Their Virtual Chess Teacher a Voice
Chess.com, founded in 2007, has long been dedicated to serving the global chess community by offering innovative tools for playing, connecting, and learning online. One of their top learning apps, Learn Chess with Dr. Wolf, features an interactive virtual chess teacher who adapts to users' abilities, providing personalized guidance to help them improve their game.
Initially, Dr. Wolf offered only text-based commentary. However, after receiving user feedback highlighting the need for audio guidance—particularly to assist younger players struggling with reading—the Chess.com team recognized the potential to enhance the learning experience by adding a voice component. To achieve this, they partnered with ElevenLabs to find a voice that was both authoritative and warm, maintaining the personal touch of a seasoned chess coach.
The integration of ElevenLabs' voice technology has been met with overwhelmingly positive responses. Users have noted that audio guidance allows them to keep their eyes on the chessboard, leading to a more natural and effective learning process. As Gabe Jacobs, the product manager on the Dr. Wolf team, stated:
"The introduction of a voice for Dr. Wolf has transformed our app. It's not just a feature—it’s brought a whole new dimension to learning chess online."
— Gabe Jacobs, Product Manager, Dr. Wolf Team
Paradox Interactive Speeds Up Voiceovers with ElevenLabs
Paradox Interactive, the renowned Swedish game developer behind titles like Stellaris and Crusader Kings III, has partnered with ElevenLabs to integrate advanced voice technology into their game development process. This collaboration aims to streamline voice generation, reducing production time and costs.
Incorporating ElevenLabs' generative AI technology offers Paradox several benefits, including efficient iteration during pre-production, cost savings on extensive dialogues, flexible localization for global markets, enhanced accessibility for visually impaired players, and the ability to explore new narratives and expansions with ease.
Ernesto Lopez, Audio Director for Stellaris and Crusader Kings III, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership:
"We’re incredibly pleased with the results from the ElevenLabs platform. The samples created by their contextually aware engine have exceeded our expectations, inspiring us to push the limits of our projects and imagine more intricate and richer voice-over designs for our games."
— Ernesto Lopez, Audio Director, Paradox Interactive
デベロッパーにとって最大の障害の一つは、会話型音声AIの大規模な実装のコストです。ゲーム開発はすでに大規模な財政的取り組みであり、数年にわたり多額の投資を必要とします。Grand Theft Auto VIを例にとると、2023年12月に最初のトレーラーが公開されたにもかかわらず、発売日は不明のままであり、GTA Vのリリースから10年以上が経過しています。このようなブロックバスタータイトルの制作には莫大なコストがかかり、スタジオが市場にゲームを投入する前に直面する財政的圧力を強調しています。
Eagr.ai transformed sales coaching by integrating ElevenLabs' conversational AI, replacing outdated role-playing with lifelike simulations. This led to a significant 18% average increase in win-rates and a 30% performance boost for top users, proving the power of realistic AI in corporate training.
BurdaVerlag is partnering with ElevenLabs to integrate its advanced AI audio and voice agent technology into the AISSIST platform. This will provide powerful tools for text-to-speech, transcription, and more, streamlining workflows for media and publishing professionals.
