The increasing use of artificial intelligence in game design, especially with regard to NPC (non-playable character) behavior, is one of the most interesting trends of 2024. Advanced AI-driven NPCs are being experimented with in games such as The Elder Scrolls VI and Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty. These NPCs can now react dynamically to player actions, replicating real-world discussions and changing gameplay based on choices made by the player.
NPCs are growing more dynamic and lifelike as a result of the growing use of AI tools like OpenAI’s GPT systems in game creation. These tools allow NPCs to generate responses spontaneously rather than depending on dialogue trees that have already been prepared. With this modification, in-game interactions should become more intimate and immersive.
