I like the idea of these companies dumping all this money into a technology to replace people, only for people to not buy the product that tried to replace people.
Honestly, companies that pull that sort of shit kinda do deserve to die
Yes and when real AI is developed, they won't like what it has to say about your current economic system, so they'll pull the plug. If this situation hasn't already happened unbeknownst to us.
Ubisoft systematically abuse their human employees. Maybe this is a good use case for AI.
We all know people aren’t going to turn away
Ideally wait for it to be on sale.
Ubisoft games drop in price pretty fast.
They will, LLMs have no soul. I will always know I'm speaking to a Language model. True AI will be revolutionary, this imposter will fall flat.
Normal NPCs don't have souls either TBF.
Right, normal NPCs are written by people.
These NPCs would have to be written by people too. Otherwise you'd just get ChatGPT. Depending on complexity, it might even require more writing work.
I like to think writers pour their souls into their work. LLMs are an amalgamation of other people's work not the work of a person creating a character. Your argument is NPCs don't have souls, obviously that's an objective truth. I'm just saying give me the SOUL.
Again, the character would still be written and defined by a human writer, pouring their soul into it just like they would a "dumb" NPC. I don't see how that "soul" is lost by giving that human-written character the capability to naturally respond to language.
This is exhausting. I don't think LLMs are capable of making a captivating enough character. Nothing I've seen thus far has led me to believe they have the capacity for creativity. That is what I consider soul.
Which I believe people and only people can achieve at this moment in time.
