"AI NPCs: A Glimpse into the Future at GDC 2024"

At GDC 2024, NVIDIA and Ubisoft showcased their Inworld AI technology, demonstrating the capabilities of AI-powered NPCs in gaming. The hands-on experience allowed for interactive and voice-controlled interactions with AI characters, showcasing the potential for realistic and immersive gameplay. While the demonstrations revealed the progress in AI conversation and interaction, there were limitations in the NPCs' responses and the need for discrete objectives, raising questions about the integration of these tools into games before the current console generation ends.
