Cringy AI game demo proves once again the technology just isn’t ready yet
Convai, a development team that makes conversational AI for virtual worlds, just released a trailer for an upcoming AI-powered experience called Project Neural Nexus. Community reactions to the trailer were overwhelmingly negative, with players calling it “soulless” and “a joke.”
The trailer shows a first-person Cyberpunk-like experience where a player walks around a virtual world and converses with NPCs. While some first-person shooting is shown toward the end, the AI conversations are the highlight of the trailer, which according to the YouTube comments, completely missed the mark.
