Players Use 'Solid Snake Method' to Outsmart AI NPCs and Skip Sidequests

Players of the open-world RPG Where Winds Meet are exploiting AI-powered NPCs by claiming they have solved riddles or repeating dialogue to skip side quests, using methods similar to the 'Solid Snake' tactic from Metal Gear. This highlights potential flaws in the game's AI design, which allows for such bypasses, raising questions about the effectiveness of AI in creating immersive experiences.

"AI-Powered NPCs: The Evolution of Interactive Storytelling in Video Games"

During a Nvidia tech demo, a journalist interacted with AI-powered non-playable characters (NPCs) and found one named Tae to be surprisingly responsive and imaginative, even retaining long-term memory of their conversations. While the technology is still in development and has its limitations, the potential for AI NPCs in gaming is evident. Companies like Nvidia, Ubisoft, Epic Games, and AMD are investing in this research, and with continued development and feedback, AI NPCs are expected to become more convincing and integrated into gaming experiences.

Ubisoft is working on a project called NEO NPC, aiming to use generative AI to create non-playable characters (NPCs) that can engage in more realistic and dynamic conversations with players. The project involves using prewritten backstories and personalities to generate responses on the fly, with the goal of creating a "real conversation" experience. While the NPCs will have limitations based on their role and character arcs, the project is still in the prototype stage and requires further development before being implemented in video games.

"Revolutionizing NPC Dialogue in Skyrim with ChatGPT Mod and AI Tools"

A modder has used OpenAI's ChatGPT to give NPCs in the VR edition of Skyrim the ability to generate new dialogue and have conversations with players. By using a text-to-speech modulator and OpenAI's speech-to-text model, the modder was able to converse with in-game characters by speaking into their mic. The NPCs were even able to remember past events and conversations. This is an exciting demonstration of how AI technologies could enhance video games in the future.
