    Ok. So call me when it’s ready.

    I am unimpressed by the nonsense articles like these coming out about early tech.

    You won’t convince me that AI can’t exceed “taking an arrow to a knee” quality dialogue repeated over and over, and that shit is still the best immersion we’ve got!

      I think we’re going to see major NPCs get their dialog hand-written and background characters get AI dialog.

      You could have random shopkeepers ramble on for hours about how their kids are doing in school or trouble they’re having with a delivery company or whatever topic. Nobody’s going to write that, but we could AI generate it.

        Exactly!

        People are expecting this to take people’a jobs so they’re picking apart the tech instead of paying attention.

        Making an NPC be run by AI most likely will require more writing than it does now, but the end result will be worth it for games that strive for immersion.
