@itstherespawn: A PC game demo called 'Teach My Little Sister How To Drive' is costing its developers over $1,000 a day to run. They've even had to take out a bank loan just so people can keep playing. #gaming #pcgame #indiegame #newsdop

Why the hell didn’t they just make it without ai, voice controlled games have existed for years without it

This has to be the dumbest way to execute this idea, the API calls will be insane.

Just use local AI - it’s what I did for Much Fibbing my detective game so you can talk to the villagers - try it on the App Store 😁

It's just a joke... :
Shame because they won't make that back as people won't buy the full release. It's only fun for like a hour max.

They’ll never make money back on it unless the ai is isolated and trained

Why won’t they use deepseek models, the flash model is so darn cheap and has enough intelligence for this type of game
