this message is for investors, not gamers

dumb investors will be like "oh yay they're doing the tech hype fad thing that lets management do big layoffs and pump out content"

smart investors will be like "this will make the games worse"

Yeah, wasn't it the same message but with NFTs instead of AI the last year or the one before? Clearly they are just chasing the latest trend no matter what

I would love an RPG where you could just type whatever you want for dialog choices.

The technology isn't there yet, both in terms of running on the average gamer PC and in terms of producing a result that is predictable enough to actually fit into a given game world. In the context of games you don't want the AI to just make up any old crap based on something completely unrelated to the game world.

Although we do have AI Dungeon for many years now.

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Yeah, but that is more the kind of game where you go "haha, look what kind of crap it produced this time" and less a serious use case where you want to be 99% certain it won't suddenly talk about something completely different.

Yeah and if game companies don't work with and develop the tech it never will

With the right context given to the AI (backstory, motivation, personality, specific plot points the character has to mention at certain points in the game) as is it can provide pretty decent responses. The hardware limitation exists for sure, but we already have online-only single player games, at least this would provide a functionality instead of just more drm.

chat gpt can't even tell a cohesive story where it remembers what it said 3 paragraphs ago

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Older models couldn't. Now it absolutely can, particularly if you can feed it more info, like I suggested.
