And who’s going to be powering that NPC’s LLM model? Unless all you want is a free hotlinked chatbot window disguised as a character? Because the publishers and developers sure as hell won’t power it on their end and if they do you’ll be paying out the ass for it. Otherwise that LLM for an NPC will have to run locally on your own hardware…in addition to the game itself.
So yeah, have fun with that.
And dialogue generation is ALL they can do btw. They can’t navigate a character around a 3d environment or even play against you in a grand strategy game. So, looking at RAM and GPU prices… yeah the novelty of LLM in games will run it’s course pretty quick.

It’d be a small model run locally, taking up maybe half a GB of VRAM
Bruh, that’s like 25-50% on an Nvidia card. Too much overhead! /s
In theory they could offer the ability in the settings to use the NPU if one is available.
Basically the same situation as it was with Raytracing.
