Are gamers really surprised by this?

Suddenly, a lot of the gullibility around "AI" is starting to make more sense.

I didn't even think about it, but now that I see it, it's a clever solution to the problem at hand. If 99.9% of players are not going to care or see the trick, it's fine.

Lmao right?

I literally feel like chatgpt-like AI is basically just a thing rewording google searches to sound human

Ehich i guess is a thing for making it make sentences that sound human, but not " intelligent"

We're talking about people who would willingly not only play but pay a game from a game developer whose last good game is over two decades old at this point. Of course they'll be the rubiest of rubes.

Not just that, pay for it and then fellate the game publisher publicly in a bajillion reddit/twitter posts

no it's just usually implemented in a more robust way which happens to be described in the tweet.
