Enhancing game graphics with AI: AMD and 飞机盗号软件VIPSony collaborate on an ambitious project

December 20, 2025  22:33

AMD and Sony have announced the launch of an ambitious multi-year project codenamed Amethyst, aimed at advancing gaming graphics technologies through artificial intelligence.

The project’s goal is to develop a machine learning architecture, including the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and to create high-quality algorithms for graphics processing. These technologies will be implemented not only on the PlayStation platform but also on other consoles, PCs, and cloud services.

Key objectives of Amethystinclude:

• Enhancing graphics quality in games;
• Improving ray tracing and path tracing;
• Optimizing textures, lighting, and visual effects;
• Creating more realistic animations and environments in real-time.

Convolutional neural networks, the backbone of the project, are widely used for processing grid-structured data, including image and video recognition. In the context of video games, they enable:

• Dynamic resolution enhancement;
• Optimized ray tracing for more realistic lighting effects;
• Generation of detailed game environments.

Mark Cerny, the architect of the PlayStation 5, noted that the project is long-term, with initial results expected closer to the launch of the next-generation PlayStation console. According to The Verge, developing a new console typically takes about four years, hinting at a potential connection between Amethyst’s outcomes and the release of the PlayStation 6.
