    Can't imagine handing control of anything over to an LLM.

    How are you imagining that go down? Like a game with text based control? I don't understand.

    Ah, yes, for dialogue, that makes a lot of sense. I thought you meant physical movement, like using LLM tech to replace traditional NPC AI.

    It would be cool if it could be used for custom character names. It really bugs me when the main characters first name is never used in dialogue, because you created it. Especially in the recent Hogwarts game. Maybe the creator could generate the spoken name from what you enter, and let you fine tune pronunciation somehow.

    Mixing generative AI with voice acting sounds to me more immersion-breaking than using ways to avoid naming you directly.

    I don't know, maybe. But avoiding first names sucks. Humans use first names. And the idea I proposed would use the AI initially, but then be fine tuned by hand to sound right, and then saved. It wouldn't use the AI in real time. If that could be made to work, I see absolutely no problem, but it's just an idea.

    The cynic in me says they'll start making the normal online ordering process much harder and worse to try to force ai shopping usage

    Retailers will eliminate search, product sort and filters, etc.

    They will dumb it down to happy value meal, the generous ones may allow ala carte ordering, a nod to legacy web purchasing. Imagine allowing consumers to choose their own products?!? How dated and unprofitable.

    With most people nearly illiterate, as designed, they won't complain.
