AI imagines iconic GTA V scene in realistic version

GTA V’s graphics have never been a point of discussion or displeasure among fans, quite the opposite, but many of them have always imagined what an even more realistic version of the game’s scenes would be like. Well, now she’s practically real.

It turns out that the YouTube channel Niccyan posted a very interesting video that recreates the game’s first iconic scene using AI to bring to life an ultra realistic version of GTA V. Check out the result!

GTA V in realistic version

The video was made using the Runway Gen-3 tool, an advanced AI platform aimed at generating videos and animations. He recreated practically the entire scene from the game’s initial gameplay, where the characters are involved in a bank robbery, with part of the escape in the car.

The video brought a more realistic view, which almost seems like something out of a live-action GTA V film, while also helping players imagine controlling a character that seems so real.

The result is very interesting given the tools currently available, but like practically every video made by AI involving large scenes and people, it still has its notable flaws, which even makes everything more fun. More hardcore fans, for example, would be disappointed by the fact that the characters in the hyper realistic version are not at all similar to those in the game. Check the result and draw your conclusions:

Getting to know Runway Gen-3

An interesting highlight of the video is that it was made with Runway Gen-3, which is an advanced artificial intelligence tool aimed at generating videos and images, with a focus on creating realistic and dynamic visual content.

Developed by Runway, a platform that offers creative tools based on AI, Gen-3 is the third generation of its system, which has been improving video generation capabilities from textual descriptions or visual inputs.

It is one of the most current solutions, with the Runway Gen-3 Alpha being one of the last models to be launched in this category after the announcement of Sora.

Runway Gen-3’s biggest difference is its ability to transform basic descriptions or videos into highly realistic and detailed scenes, without the need for advanced animation or video editing skills. The tool uses deep neural networks to understand and recreate motion, lighting, textures, and other visual elements with impressive accuracy.
