Nvidia’s G-Assist AI now works with Twitch, Spotify, and Gemini
Nvidia is mighty proud of G-Assist, its new “AI” companion that runs on top of an active game and helps you out with tips or hardware adjustments. Now, it looks like the company is preparing to expand its capabilities. A new plugin-making system and several examples are already letting the tool’s tendrils expand to other services. While standard developers can already use the G-Assist API, Nvidia is hoping that more regular users will get in on the action, and has made a Plugin Builder to achieve this. Using ChatGPT’s generative code capabilities, it allows even a complete novice to “vibe code” and connect it with anything that also has an open API or a similar setup. The video above shows an example user asking the Plugin Builder tool to generate a plugin to see if a Twitch streamer is live, then walks through the steps to create and install the plugin. It’s shockingly smooth, going from a text prompt to a functioning bit of code in two minutes (though I think it’s assuming a lot of how-to knowledge on the user’s part). Nvidia has already built what it calls “official” G-Assist plugins to hook the system into Twitch, Spotify, Google Gemini, and peripheral and lighting control for Logitech, Corsair, and Nanoleaf, all available on GitHub. Nvidia says it’s going to create more plugins in the future, too. Nvidia G-Assist is available in the official Nvidia app now, and naturally it needs an RTX 30-series GPU or later to work.
