Referred to as “The Sims killer” by numerous online commentators and internet users, inZOI is a forthcoming life simulation video game that integrates generative AI at the core of character customization.
In inZOI, gamers have the ability to create personalized textures for clothing and in-game objects utilizing text input, produce 3D models such as interior decor or accessories from visuals, and animate their ZOIs (characters) through motions generated from video feed.
The game applies small language model technology, which is a variety of generative AI, for processing and producing natural language, facilitating more authentic behavior for ZOIs. When combined with the game’s entirely simulated community, where each character functions independently, it fosters a vibrant environment.
