Application of Artificial Intelligence and Visual Programming Technologies in Digital Interactive Project Development

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and visual programming technologies, digital interactive project development has entered a new stage. This paper first introduces the basic framework of the development process combining artificial intelligence technology. It then focuses on the implementation method based on Unity-Playmaker visual programming, as well as the experience of extending Playmaker custom scripts using advanced artificial intelligence technologies like ChatGPT. Finally, it demonstrates how to apply flowchart thinking, supplemented by artificial intelligence and visual programming technologies, to implement the basic functional framework of complex AI behavior trees, using the AI behavior tree as a case study. The in-depth integration of artificial intelligence, visual programming and project development processes explored here allows developers to not only improve development efficiency, but also lower the learning curve and achieve better team collaboration. It has important implications for promoting industry technology upgrades.
