Yeah, AI’s been a double‑edged sword, right? On one side it’s throwing out fresh story beats and giving players a sense that their choices actually matter. On the other, it can nudge them toward a scripted path without them even realizing it. I love the tech when it expands the sandbox, but I’ve seen it tighten the narrative loop too much, so I keep an eye on the bias in those decision trees. If you’re developing, ask yourself: does the AI enhance agency or just shove a preset ending down the player’s throat? The balance is tight, and it’s up to us to keep the scales from tipping toward manipulation.
