It depends much on the game, environment, people involved.

Npc ai has come a far way and the thrill of playing live with people is a real competition. And its only just started to get good enough to intimidate social/emotional behavior.

  • massive realistic single player historic events, like battlefields - yay

  • the social aspect of social media and online comments - nah

  • front and helpdesk assistants, maybe even a certified therapist ai - yea

  • friends/family - cant

I'm with you except for the therapist one. Ain't no way the AI we have currently or anything even close to what we have now could be a therapist. The human connection is the #1 most important thing in therapy and being a therapist takes way too much contextual understanding.

Ai we have now, not so much. But in a few generations?

I have experience with quite a few therapists/psychologist/doctors/psychiatrists and the most common issue i find is that many of them are old and all of them carry human biases. Ai is biased like us but i think there is more room to create more objective reasoning.
