"Grand Theft Auto" is used to train how to drive. The game has been put to use in the real world. The artificial intelligence is used to help learn in driving cars.
According to METRO, using videos has been used to train car drivers. In a research done by researchers at the Intel Labs and Darmstadt University training cars using the "GTA V" is quicker and easier. One big advantage is that the driver does not need to analyze what is in the game. The software already knows beforehand whether it is a car or a traffic light or just anything that can be encountered on the streets.
The large open world range of the game which features different environments is a great feature of the "GTV V" and is practically useful. There are different elements in the game that can be seen in the real world which can help drivers be alert on the streets.
In another research at the University of British Columbia, it is indicated that synthetic data is better than using real data for training. This is not the first time that something like this happened to video games. The World of Warcraft was used to analyze how real-life epidemics can spread. It also was useful in researching how terrorist cell form and operate.
In another report from iTech Post, rumors of a "GTA 6" release has been cancelled. The developers of the game indicate that they are prioritizing the "GTA V." There are reports that "GTA 6" is going to be revealed on the Sony PlayStation Event. It is also speculated that Eva Mendez is going to be the lead hero of the game which is expected to be released in 2017.
It seems that there are changes in the priorities of Rockstar and Sony. Sony has been silent about any details of the "GTA 6" and Rockstar was not able to appear in the PlayStation event.
For now fans of the game need to wait for an official announcement of the release of "GTA 6."
