2 things i'd like to say: -> chat gpt doesnt freeze like that, it stops after a certain limit and you can type "continue" and it will -> its information is limited to 2021, so the tips it had given you on how to make the text less blurry was for an older version of unity, which at the time was the latest one CHATGPT IS AWESOME

[@BitwiseMobile]

You can also tell it that it's using old stuff. I did that and it came back with an example that was more up to date. It's been trained with old data first, so that's going to be what is selected first. The more you tell it that it's wrong, the more it will learn and get better.

If ChatGPT does not continue to write you code, just type "continue" and it will write you the rest of the code. It has already helped me a lot in my React projects.

sadly this only works in some languages and outside of that you have to phrase things like you're a cow doing acrobatics (doesn't help that ChatGPT starts ignoring specifications if they're simpler things or delivery based). I saw one prompt at one point which had a "send x amount of line then stop and wait for me to saw continue, do not restart when you continue and if you were in the middle of a method, continue from where you left off" so on so forth. It's really interesting the stuff people're doing with ChatGPT and even just things you can do with it without that logical acrobatics.

ChatGPT is super powerful, but you also need to know Unity beforehand and how everything works. It's more of an tool than a bot that makes everything for you. If you have no idea what the scripts actually do, then it's very difficult to customize them to your liking. For a simple game like this it works super well, but for bigger projects I see it as a mentor who can help when you get stuck.

I did the same thing last week, but using GameMaker Studio. I also made ChatGPT choose the type of game and the mechanics. Fighting with the reply-length limit was the hardest part for sure. ChatGPT can also create short melodies (with notes!) for background music, which you can put in an audio app for exporting. The best part was having the other AI, DALL-E, draw the graphics.

[@pedrohpf1990]

I've tried to have it make a simple text game with choices, what I found out is it sometimes cannot reply the full code because it exceeds the max response size limit. And yes my source for that info was ChatGPT itself. So if that happens, you have to try to ask him for the smaller missing section of the code or something in the next question. EDIT: Holy shit fine I get it you can just say "continue", you're not original for knowing that. If you checked the replies to this comment you would see half of them saying the same thing.

[@harmony0732]

I've been using ChatGPT to help me at work, especially since I work with Visual Basic, and its genuinely helped me fix any bugs that comes up and has helped me find ways to rewrite areas of my apps. You do have to kind of learn what special words you need to say to get it to write the right code, along with giving it enough context to work with. I found that asking it to create blocks of code rather than the whole script, the code tends to be closer to what you want it to do.

[@MINIMAN10000]

yeah, the larger the scope the weirder it gets as well as the harder it is to words things in a way that doesn't cause it to misunderstand.

There is a character limit to responses. If you simply type "continue from line ".....the last line you want..." it will continue the script from that line.

Also, if the AI freezes, you can type continue, and the AI will continue the code from where it stopped.

I use GPT as a sort of assistant/stackoverflow replacement. the best oractice is to use it as a tool to look up certain references with full explanation etc. without having to google 200 websites to find a solution. and it is even better at api lookups, so you can quickly find all the relevant documentation for certain stuff with explanation. if the explanation is still not good enough you can always ask to make the explanation better and it will do that. its like Copilot, but actually useful in workflows.

In reference to the “script that did nothing” at 3:20, you can see that it created a locally available rigid body variable and assigned the rb variable using GetComponent in the Start method which causes unity to search for a rigidbody component on a base gameobject and pass its reference, effectively providing the same functionality as the script before assuming you have a rigidbody component on your player game object.

[@northerb1655]

Well, no, the script does create a reference and assign it, but the script does nothing with the assigned rigidbody component. He could remove all the code related to the rigidbody component and the functionality wouldn't change at all.

But then I asked it to integrate them together and it intuitively figured it out. But moreso, me watching it figure out what I meant helped me understand how to code it myself. In less than a day I was designing an idle game that did some complex things I had tried to make many times before, and very little of it was actually written by chatgpt.

I bet there is some relatively popular format of writing down MIDI or audio synthesizer as formatted text somewhere out there, if you ask ChatGPT it will likely attempt to use it to create sound effects using that formatting, then just find some online or offline software that will let you save the result as an audio file and then add it to the game. It might be worth asking it about some details when it comes to what sort of sound waves gunfire makes, what frequencies would sound similar and then to use those with the previously mentioned text audio format to create the sound effect. The ChatGPT is not perfect but it's good enough to do a simple version of everything and if you are clever, you can take leverage of it really nicely

[@NerdWithABeard]

One thing I noticed is that you entered a new chat session after you got ChatGPT to make a code for the player's collision in 2D, which means that it essentially forgets everything you already talked about. ChatGPT, from my experience, only remembers things you talk about in that one session. If you start a new session, it's like ChatGPT had short term memory loss that suddenly kicked in & wiped everything to when you first started chatting.

[@iochiglaucus]

A session has a context, it doesn't remember context between chats so it's not memory loss, it's that the memory was in a different brain entirely. The new multiple-chats feature remedies this which is really nice (a fair few people were complaining about it :P esp with ChatGPT's tendency to crash after longer sessions or weirdly phrased comments. I suppose just remember that ChatGPT isn't as much of a ChatBot as it is a language processing AI, it's not repeating information, it's analysing words into something it can understand and then using it's understanding of language to respond appropriately (this is a vast simplification of ChatGPT but it is extremely different than ChatBots on a fundamental level). M8's updating all the time recently so if you're still interested in using it you can pop-back in every now and again to see what you can do (though it might get stale after a while \_( -v-)_/)

thats literally the first thing i did when i found out they could code

[@oscarrivas7240]

I bookmarked chatgpt on my 9 yr old nieces computer and she was so stoked about it. Can’t wait to see what kids start coming up with these things.

[@YeahEsCereal]

At my school there was a piece of paper written by other students which said “the sky is the limit”, I said to myself “heard of the universe?”, But is ChatGPT the limit?

[@fritt_wastaken]

Well, this isn't really a code you would put in a bigger project, but it is a very powerful way to prototype. Really impressive for a general purpose language model

[@theseangle]

You can use it to analyze YOUR code. You can use it to create interfaces / models of response shapes based on inputted response JSON. It can quickly make you a working skeleton for a class that'll be used in your project. Then it can extend this class's functionality based on your needs. It's rly powerful. I have already used it for fun to create some components for my Vue project lmfao. I could've made them by myself which is easy, but would've consumed more time. It's incredible

[@theseangle]

And sometimes when you're confused about something and can't find the info in google you can query some questions to it and it'll provide a detailed response and AN EXPLANATION of some concept. It can explain really efficiently. You can even request something like "explain me what are JS promises like I'm five" and a five year old quite possibly would understand the explanation lmao

[@Sumrandumbguy]

​@@theseangle Thanks man I'm trying to get into coding. I appreciate you commenting this it helps me out a ton.

[@kenanderson3954]

I think the thing you need to remember when working with chatGPT on a project like this, is that you are talking to a machine. You kind of need to think a similar way to when you're normally programming. You need to set context (normally that would be done with variables, types, and defined functions) but in this case, you can use natural language. You then need to have it catch mistakes for itself. Such as asking it: "Is using a string comparison the most optimal way to compare tags in Unity?". Using chatGPT well for this kind of thing obviously requires a pretty solid understanding of the topic you're working on, at least for the moment, but it is certainly a powerful tool once you get better at using it. For my purposes, it has been pretty powerful to start with a broad context, like 'I am looking to make a 2d shooter game, similar to asteroids, using unity and C#, what classes would be required for this game to function' and then working on the specifics of each class and function from there.

[@DaveInVerdansk]

This is crazy! I had made a few basic text based dungeon crawler games, with some graphics made from Dalle but this is on another level. Nice work!

[@TheFattestbastardinQ]

I did this with my 9yo son last week. Had it generate code in Python, it was pretty cool.

[@BizlaC]

When the code seems to stop and freeze like that, type "continue" and it will write out the rest of it, seems to be some sort of limit to how much it can show at once

[@ZeZa1515]

You can give each response a 👍or a 👎 and it will ask you what you thought a more correct response would have been. The `CompareTag` vs string comparison is a perfect example of where you can help improve the model!

[@BenBonk]

Ooh, didn’t know that, thanks for sharing!

[@warrenprice2137]

Great video. Yeah, I asked ChatGPT to write a program that would enable me to play the classic game "lunar lander." It produced the code which I was able to execute on the pygame module of Python. While rudimentary, the game it produced was fully functional and essentially recreated the classic game. Unbelievable. It was able to do the same thing when I asked it to write a playable version of Pong. It was able to describe exactly how the game play worked on both games and then produce the code. Honestly, I'm impressed and a bit frightened at the same time.

[@Cokodayo]

I have recently been learning about Ai and stuff, so i asked gpt to created a very simple ai for me which can distinguish between images of cats and dog. And it delevered

I outlined an entire science fiction novel, from start to finish brainstorming with ChatGPT. It's pretty good, too.

[@DirtyDan71327]

I'm wondering if it'd be possible, probably in the next year or 2 for self developers or hobbiests to take it to the next level with AI. Its exciting and scary. I love it.

[@Vysair]

I made an rpg both text-based and graphical in python using pygame. The issues is chatGPT are bugged, it doesn't finish the code so I had to spam "finish code" several times.

[@imDanoush]

Caching rigidBody used to be very positively impactful in terms of optimization. iirc CompareTag is not too new not sure Unity 5.6 had it so maybe the training data of ChatGPT is not too new.

[@BenBonk]

Interesting, and this is the case even if the rigid body is not accessed in the script? But thanks makes sense about CompareTag.

[@imDanoush]

@@BenBonk Caching only makes sense if you repeatedly access it. I may be wrong about the compare tag tho. I started using the function back in Unity 2017 iirc.

[@EddieAdolf]

ChatGPT is so limiting! I don't know why everyone is so blown away (guess cause its mainstream and basic interface?). This has existed for more than a year using regular GPT3 on OpenAI.

[@BenBonk]

Thanks!

[@Boredblanco]

​@@BenBonk I never even thought that stuff like this would be possible! Cool to see how far AI has come

[@omarunzainkun11]

What I usually do when the script is incomplete which is mostly due to the word limit set by OpenAI, I type this "continue from this line" and paste the line i want it to continue from. Most of the time it works. Sometimes it regenerate the entire script again. I realize it will work perfectly if the line you provided is the start of a function, not somewhere in between where ChatGPT will find it hard to figure out where to continue. But also you have the chance to continue exactly where it stop by just typing "continue the above" chances are quite high it will continue from where it stopped. Anyway, i love this video. Great work on trying to incorporate ChatGPT in this entire project despite some obstacles that I would say if you are not a programmer you probably wouldn't be able to know what's wrong and what to ask ChatGPT to fix. Cool attempt.

[@thechosenone729]

Im still thinking about the possibilities but im glad we are going to have tools like this available since we have a lot of people who are like doing design and graphics but can't really handle programming, so this would help them maybe even someday in future create game. It's still early but already it looks promising.

[@martincarballootero9886]

It also will work in reverse, someone with good programming knowlegue could create the assets and art with an art AI, or maybe someone that doesnt know neither Code or art could use both AI and make a game.

[@JayFolipurba]

This is actually awesome! We're also screwed

[@kovexplay]

Sounds really usefull! I wonder how nany new developers will start using this AI. It has some flaws but it still might be very helpful for checking if everything is alright and what can be improved Btw do you need to pay for it? It sounds too good to be available for everyone

[@KRYMauL]

I think this AI combined with a program like Visio or a node manager will probably get integrated into IDEs in the next few years.

[@hashtags_YT]

Entirely free, you just need an account and the power to bear through a long cool down when the service gets overloaded

The reason the text was blurry was because of the font size. Change it to 300 which I believe is the max then you can scale the text down. Idk why its like that

Unity does support Python btw. Based on the unity api as GPT3.5 said, cool video btw keep it up

Oh, huh. Guess I just never realized that.

[@swordarmstudios6052]

If it ever freezes just type 'continue' and it will sometimes complete the thought. not sure why it does that. It might just be a back-end not having resources thing.

[@rashSLG]

Honestly, this scares the hell out of me. What's the point in learning the actual skill to program things when you can just tell the robot to make your scripts for you? Once it gets even better, and most of the kinks are worked out, then it'll be able to script full components, I'd imagine. Makes me feel like all the money and time I've spent on this is a bit of a waste...

[@BenBonk]

Yeah, I mean I’ve had the same thoughts no doubt, it’s really scary, but intriguing at the same time. Hopefully it doesn’t take all our jobs in a few years 😔

[@RialuCaos]

Going to be quite a while before it gets to that point. Programming a full-length game requires a lot of forethought with very intentionally designed architecture and consistent code that most AIs won't be capable of for a while.

[@Skittlq]

BTW if the AI doesn't finish the code, just tell it to "Finish the code above" and it will give you the rest of the missing code!

I think seeing a ChatGPT themed gamejam would be kinda cool.

[@starshieldnightpone5636]

That would be amazing

[@WiremuTeKani]

3:19 When ChatGPT added made a "private Rigidbody2D rb;" it's an optimization because it's caching the Rigidbody2D to "rb". Unity calls the command GetComponent(), which is expensive, only once. Then it uses "rb" to point to the Rigidbody2D, which is more performant. As for whether the rest of the code makes sense, well that's up to ChatGPT. It's fascinating to see how it thinks!

[@Gooseguy1000-1]

This is awesome. And terrifying. I don’t want to let AI take away the main intellectual aspects of coding and game design. But at the same time I want to go and make a game with this right now.

I routinely turn to ChatGPT as I learn Unity… saves me a massive amount of time.

[@MotivationExMe]

Glad to see I'm not the only one who experiences the chat bot "lagging out" with long answers XD I've been able to get it to create pong pretty easily in most languages if people were interested in "beginner" project. While messing about with it I made a joke about holding my breath or something. This somehow lead us to creating a full simulation of lungs, heart, blood vessels, and finally a brain. All of these working together. We even got down to the level of synapses charging and firing. Oh, I forgot to mention that it also created a visualization for each individual part and another for the whole thing working together. We could give the "body" instructions such as run, sleep, etc... and it would change how everything behaved. Then I decided to take it a bit further. We have a brain simulated so let's use it. We created another module to visualize and interpret thoughts. To start with it was basically just giving out random strings of numbers and letters. Chatbot said that we need to give the brain some stimuli and "teach" it. This was starting to get out of hand but chatbot came through with the code (full disclosure I did have to modify a lot of it, but it had the building blocks all there). We could now show it images and text. The "thoughts" started to change. Still not making any sense but they were reacting to the inputs. Finally chatbot said we can't go any further without training the brain. We'd need to implement OR build a machine learning model. Chatbot gave me instructions to do both. This is where I've decided to leave the project so far.

[@flexxepicgamer]

ChatGPT can actually generate sounds, but through writing you code that you can put into SuperCollider- a software that allows your to create sound from code. Not 100% sure it could make something as complex as a gun shot but worth a try!

[@appleseedgames6934]

This AI is pretty scary stuff, sometimes just because you can make something doesn't mean it should be made

[@GageEakins]

When you encounter the thing where it can't generate the full code it is because you have hit the limit of the response. You just need to type continue and it will proceed to give you the rest of the response.

[@jumi6051]

I am sorry but I don't know why people promote AI like that. Especially a dev. I personally enjoy coding and I think it's scary to see that it might become a thing of the past.

It is honestly just your inexperience speaking here. This kind of stuff exists for quite a while. AI writing code is nothing new nor dangerous to developers jobs. It is quite similar to neural networks/AI learning, and everyone is happy about that one.

Why is no one talking about the fact that ML could replace actual devs if it's trained more

[@OnFight1997]

Something I've noticed with ChatGPT, is that when the code is extended, it sometimes cuts off mid coding, if you notice that happening, write a new line "Keep typing from where you left off", and it will then continue from the exact next char where it left off.

[@psycox8758]

I have found that when it freezes when producing the code, if you just type "continue", it does so. It seems that it realises that its hit a dead end but when asked to continue however, it actually takes a few steps back before proceeding past the point where the problem appeared. Asking to continue from a specific comment ( // ) is useful.

[@iochiglaucus]

As per usual with ML, the most crucial thing with ML is engineering your prompts. The general guidelines are: be specific, don't retrofit too much, make sure to be specific, try to hone in on what you want by saying methods that should be used ideally, specify as much as you can, and be specific. Two things with code and ChatGPT in particular is that you can tell it to make data-oriented or to not write comments (helps a lot with that 1300 character limit). If you want explanation, you can just ask "tell me how [method/variable/function/whatever] works?" and it'll deliver. Whenever I have it write code for a navmeshagent I say "write code for a navmeshagent" and it'll do that instead of raw translation or a rigidbody. It doesn't seem to know how to do the hack-knee stuff that you sometimes need to do for some things (baking a path with navmeshagent before turning the agent off and using the path to move a rigidbody or charcon). It's a really interesting tool that I've used for elements in gamedev that I don't have a good base for but can build off of just fine. One example is the enemy code in one jam game I made which was a very simple two state ai that ChatGPT gave me that I not only had to fix because it didn't work (ChatGPT sometimes doesn't understand how to tell if a navigation is complete) but it gave me the perfect basis for doing what I needed; in reality I rewrote the entire script but just that push that ChatGPT can provide is insanely helpful if you're stuck or just don't know exactly what you should do with something. I told it to write code to mathematically slice a polygon with a line and it did, it may have been flawed but the methodology was there and it wrote it more correctly that I did four years ago when I spent a week or two trying to write that exact algorithm (it's a lot harder than it sounds, or I'm just not good at geometry :P). I'm glad you did't hyperbolically demonise GPT or ML because people's tendency to do that (even jokingly) have made people who don't understand what ML just say incorrect or stupid things relating to AI. I suppose that's moreso a common gripe I have with ML centric media but even so I'm glad you've made it clear that it's a tool and *not* HAL9000 v2. I've had fun with ChatGPT just telling it to write stupid procgen code that barely works but is a funny experiment or telling it to write songs on games or properties that it doesn't really know to much about, I've asked it implementation information (for example why one would use a forward-renderer as apposed to a deferred one, or the method one would use to process a field of signals that are on the same frequency), one of my favourites is telling it to write quests in game or media worlds that it either doesn't know much about (Arknights for example which came out in 2019 but it's updated a tonne since then and ChatGPT's internet training was cut in 2021 iirc). Anywho, lovely video, if you do another practice like this again: try to specify what game you're needing the script for (in this case a top-down 2D shooter) and try not to have it rewrite code unless it's simple non-methodological changes (though the new edit function can help a bit with having it remember context better when refining the result). And a small note relating to it's sometimes incorrect or weird code practices is that since it was trained with anything it could get it's paws on, it doesn't know if a method or such is deprecated (at least not most of the time). It's similar with *newly* deprecated code since it had it's cord cut in 2021, meaning any new stuff is out of it's field. And just like you've demonstrated it'll give left-field solutions that either don't work or are just plain strange; usually that can be cleared up with specificity though. TL;DR awesome video, a fun practice and exploration that so many have been jumping into recently and it's cool seeing a video of someone doing so. Apologies for the novel, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I just think too much ;v-v. Cheers~ EDIT: interstingly enough, you can (or at least I have) use it for learning new things entirely, have it help you write a song or walk you through the ways of writing a good fiction or elsewise.

I work with G Code on CNC lathes for a living, so I asked ChatGPT to write some example code. It did surprisingly well except it set the feed speed (inches the tool moves per revolution) to 50” instead of something typical like .006”. Due to the RPM it called for being normal, the tool would be going at highway speeds, which is not ideal to say the least.

What really makes this crazy is that chatGPT was designed primarily as a chatbot with good conversation skills and to provide knowledge, the fact it can still do this at all is amazing

[@iochiglaucus]

To be fair, it's made with a powerful base with OpenAI and made by people who understand what they're doing. Lots of early (and even recent) ChatBots are hardly related to ChatGPT since they're trained differently on a fundamental level. It helps that it was trained with the internet instead of users so that it could get the knowledge to do all this stuff.
