  • Publication number: 20230381658
    Abstract: An AI system is trained to operate by receiving game telemetry data from a gaming application associated with game play of a player, wherein the telemetry data includes pixel data from the gaming application; generating a predicted user motivation by applying the BEA tools to the game telemetry data, wherein the predicted user motivation includes motivation data that indicates motivation scores for the player for each of a plurality of motivation factors associated with a corresponding one of a plurality of different motivations, and wherein each of the motivation scores for the player predicts an amount that the player's behavior while playing the gaming application is motivated by one of the plurality of different motivations; and facilitating adaptation of the gaming application based on the predicted user motivation.

  • Patent number: 11826650
    Abstract: A system operates by generating BEA tools that include an AI model trained via machine learning based on prior game play; receiving game data and multimodal player data associated with a play of a gaming application by a player that includes verbal data generated from the player and non-verbal data generated from the player; generating a predicted user experience by applying the BEA tools to the game data and the multimodal player data, wherein the predicted user experience includes motivation data that indicates motivation scores for the player for each of a plurality of different motivations, and wherein each of the motivation scores for the player predicts an amount that the player is motivated by one of the plurality of different motivations while playing the gaming application; and facilitating adaptation of the gaming application based on the predicted user experience.

  • Patent number: 11617954
    Abstract: A game development platform operates by: updating a gaming application corresponding to a game based on game play by at least one non-imitating game bot to generate a first updated gaming application corresponding to a first updated game; generating an imitating game bot based on first game telemetry data generated in response to play of the first updated game by actual players; updating the first updated gaming application based on play of the first updated game by the imitating game bot to generate a second updated gaming application corresponding to a second updated game; generating motivation data indicating predicted player motivations based on second game telemetry data generated in response to play of the second updated game; and updating the second updated gaming application based on the motivation data to generate a third updated gaming application corresponding to a third updated game.
