Conversations with in-game characters are getting more real! Presenting our research project, NEO NPCs, a new kind of NPC that uses generative AI to really talk to you! Discover how our team of writers and developers are coming together in this exciting experiment: ubi.li/PDyOG
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia They aren’t “really talking” to you. You are setting up your games to be completely devoid of characters with any type of personality.
I always thought it would be cool if writers would program NPCs with what they would know logically about the stories and happenings in the game at like each major event. That paired with generative AI would be really cool, but it still needs that human touch to keep them grounded
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia So your games will be even more soulless? I thought that's impossible
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia Same vibe.
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia Nice to see so many "commenters" who haven't even read the article, but condemn it anyway. Bravo.
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia People who want this vs the people who don't
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia POV: writers being "asked" to help develop Neo NPC alongside AI that will soon replace them altogether.
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia Lots of people in the comments pretending that there has been good dialogue in a single game in the past 4 years
@Ubisoft @inworld_ai @nvidia Nobody wants this except obsessive tech bros. How about paying writers to do something interesting and on-theme?
