**Ubisoft La Forge**, Ubisoft’s R&D group, has developed an AI tool, ZooBuilder, that autonomously generates animal animations using machine learning algorithms. The tool analyzes video footage to pinpoint an animal’s joint coordinates, creating a virtual skeleton that is transformed into 3D coordinates for realistic animations. ZooBuilder is not intended to replace animators but to create prototypes of 3D animated animals, allowing artists to focus on refining these prototypes. The tool, currently in the prototype phase, could revolutionize the animation process in the gaming and movie industry, potentially leading to better quality results, new forms of media, and even reducing animal cruelty through realistic depictions of wildlife.
