CCP Games Explores AI: Evolving Cinematics and Customer Service
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our second CCP Explores event at our Gróska HQ in Reykjavik. The session featured insightful presentations from Davíð Einarsson, Senior Project Manager of Player Experience, and Ólafur Ágúst Haraldsson, EVE Online Cinematics Director, with an introduction by Eyrún Jónsdóttir, CCP Games VP of Publishing.
* Enhancing Customer Service Efficiency with AI
Davíð Einarsson opened the event with a deep dive into the AI-driven advancements in CCP Games' customer service operations. He detailed how the Player Experience (PX) team has been leveraging AI to tackle the challenges of multilingual support and improve overall efficiency.
A key highlight was the implementation of AI translation tools, enabling customer service agents to handle inquiries in any language. This innovation has led to more consistent response times and reduced the costs associated with hiring multilingual agents. While AI translations are not perfect, customer satisfaction scores have remained stable, not least thanks to the fact that response times have significantly decreased.
Davíð also introduced generative AI features for ticket summarization and response generation. These tools have proven effective in managing complex and lengthy customer interactions, saving valuable time for agents and boosting their productivity. A key benefit to these summarization tools is that they remove emotions from player queries, which serves to make tickets clearer and easier to manage. The positive feedback from the support team underscores AI's potential to enhance both efficiency and morale.
** Accelerating Cinematic Production with AI
Ólafur Ágúst Haraldsson then explored the integration of generative AI in cinematic production. He demonstrated how AI tools, particularly large language models like ChatGPT, are transforming the creative process by assisting in brainstorming, scriptwriting, and visual generation. These capabilities enable the rapid development of immersive cinematic trailers.
Ólafur highlighted AI's role in pushing creative boundaries, providing shortcuts through the collective brainstorming process to generate fresh and innovative concepts. This not only accelerates creativity but enables a small team to dramatically increase its output. AI tools like DALL-E and MidJourney were showcased, illustrating their role in pre-visualization workflows.
While AI is not capable of fully automating cinematic production, its current applications significantly streamline various tasks. This allows the creative team to focus more on refining and perfecting the final output, ensuring high-quality visual storytelling.
*** Looking Ahead
By open-sourcing the Carbon Development Platform we want to democratize game development and put more tools in the hands of the players.
