Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Why would you train an NPC LLM to know it's an LLM?
The best models right now still hallucinate, so no matter how well trained, they're still going to be awful. The specific message isn't the issue.
They have no object permanence and you can convince them of things by just repeating it to them enough times. But the worst part?
They're not even fun to talk to.
So if they don't hallucinate, have object permanence, and are fun to talk to, you're all good with gen AI NPCs?
Those are not my ONLY issues, no. They're the most egregious for a videogame right now, but the entire concept is just .. Fluff for no reason other than to list "AI NPCs" on the box.
Paying for more writers is simply better all around.
Paying for labour is toxic to any self respecting capitalist
And do you believe paying for more writers will remain a better option for the foreseeable future?
