Sony Corp's stock surged 10% in pre-market trading on Thursday, fueled by investor enthusiasm for the company's deepened collaboration with AMD to infuse artificial intelligence and machine learning into PlayStation games.
The two tech giants have embarked on a multi-year project codenamed "Amethyst," which aims to develop ideal architectures for machine learning and high-quality neural networks specifically tailored for graphics rendering and gameplay enhancements.
Through this partnership, Sony and AMD hope to unlock the potential of AI and ML to increase the richness of game graphics, enable more extensive use of advanced techniques like ray tracing, and ultimately elevate the overall gaming experience across platforms. While initially focused on PlayStation consoles, the technology is intended for broader adoption on PCs, consoles, and cloud gaming services.
