Xbox developer tools are on the way for AI NPCs and more.
And yet, it would be far more dynamic - not to mention easier to implement - if it were powered by an LLM.
no, it wouldn’t. you would spend 10x the time to make a generative model that fucks up constantly from biases you never imagined.
Honestly, fair enough, it would take a lot of work to have an LLM direct your game in the intended way.
That said though, to create an AI system equivalent to an LLM would be even more work.
I think a lot of this comes down to AAA vs Indie, as well. For a AAA game, there is a lot more pressure to keep the LLM in line - which is of course very difficult if not impossible. For an indie game, though, the goofiness can be part of the charm, I think.
I guess my point is that I’m just excited to see what people can come up with. The point of games is to play, and I personally think LLMs are fun to play with.
