Roblox Unveils AI Assistant for Creators at RDC 2023

Roblox has revealed a new conversational AI assistant during the 2023 Roblox Developers Conference (RDC) to assist creators in crafting experiences within the popular social app. This Roblox Assistant utilizes generative AI to enable creators to easily generate virtual environments based on text prompts.

With the Roblox Assistant, creators can simply input commands such as 'I want to make a game set in ancient ruins,' and the AI will populate the environment with relevant assets and elements. This innovative tool is designed to streamline the creative process.

Roblox has larger ambitions for the assistant in the future, aiming to enhance its capabilities to generate complex gameplay and even create 3D models from scratch. However, the official release is planned for the end of this year or early next year.

While some may worry about the impact of generative AI on the Roblox developer and creator community, Roblox's CTO, Daniel Sturman, believes that it will reduce the dependence on technical skills, allowing creators to focus on their unique creative vision.
