Generative AI
This game uses generative AI for spoken dialog which is very expensive. You are given 2,000 credits when you initial purchase the game which is good for about 20 interactions with the game. After the credits run out you can still play but you only see the subtitles without any audio. Voice credits are available as an in game purchase item.
Voice recognition happens on your local machine but if you want more control over the text you can also use manual typing.
The character dialog is generated using GPT 3 and GPT 4 models from Open AI.
