NCSOFT Corporation, a major South Korean online and mobile game
developer, said on Wednesday that it has joined hands with Google Cloud
in improving artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing
capabilities.
In a meeting at the Google headquarters in the
United States, the two companies discussed ways to apply AI and cloud
technologies in game development and develop a platform to create a
gaming ecosystem, reports Yonhap news agency.
NCSOFT said it also
plans to upgrade its generative AI language model, VARCO, by utilising
Google Cloud's Vertex AI, a machine learning platform that offers access
to Google's next-generation LLM Gemini.
"To create a fresh gaming
experience for our global users, we will collaborate with Google Cloud
to form an ecosystem," NCSOFT CEO Kim Taek-jin said.
