The AI revolution is almost upon us. In the past, we’ve seen AI creating/generating paintings, and today we get to see something that most Dark Souls gamers will appreciate. So, have you ever wondered what a Dark Souls movie could have looked like? Well, time to find out. The following images were generated by AI, and can give us an idea of exactly that.
What I find really fascinating here is that this does feel like Dark Souls. In fact, this may be the only way we can get a faithful live-action adaptation of Dark Souls. After all, we’ve seen studios taking liberties and changing A LOT of things when adapting video games to movies. Uncharted, Mortal Kombat 2021, Resident Evil… the list is endless.
What I find really ironic here is that by using the AI, we might get live-action movies that are more faithful to their source material. We might get movies without pushing agendas or secret messages or whatever. And, in a sense, this is sad. If we have to rely on the AI for such simple things, then things have already gone to hell.
But anyway, I’m certain that at some point in the future, the AI will be able to fully generate live-action movies on the fly. It may not happen in the next decade, but that’s certainly the future. For now, enjoy these Dark Souls AI-generated live-action images!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

You can’t convince me that the third image in the second row is not a real actress.

You can thank the talented devs @ Munich, Germany for that — plus nVidia & Amazon’s Linux servers for the training of the A?, of course:
“The model was trained using 256 Nvidia A100 GPUs on Amazon Web Services for a total of 150,000 GPU-hours, at a cost of $600,000.”
This AI stuff is getting insane, wow.
Looks f*king amazing
There are some f* cool pictures in there…
I’d rather watch this, than the sludge being pumped out by Hollywoke these days.
Well, AI has been accused of racism multiple times in the past. Won’t be surprised if the future AI is a woke abomination. If this is the case, it will thankfully be poorly written code, just like their games.
AI art is art. Sincerely, an artist.
Can’t wait for the industry to change for the better with this tech.
