something i dont see being talked about is the sheer processing power needed for this.

how are they gonna solve that? just requiring you to casually have a couple 4090s?

They'll require a persistent online connection for cloud compute.

Imagine now NPCs in gaming being bound to always being online and a company can choose to turn the cloud computing off for the npcs making the game unplayable after like a year, can't wait /s

That seems bound to loose them money if they don't charge a subscription.

Piracy is gonna get more interesting.

Cracked, removed AI Server lock, bring your own API key, or host model of choice locally.

Known Issues: If you use the OpenAI API, the NPCs will sometimes tell you that killing is against the ethics policy while shooting at you.

How much processing power is really necessary? I can run any 7B model pretty fast with my 1660 ti
