This isn't the flex people think it is.
Games are more expensive and slower to make than ever. Keep real actors for the main story and key characters, but let AI handle the hundreds of background NPCs. That's exactly what we're solving at Neocortex. 🤷♂️

There are over 1,000 NPCs in 'Fable' and they are all voiced by real actors 🎮
• ~100 actors were cast to voice the game's 'living population'
• No Gen AI was involved

We will be at @NordicGame this week!
If you're attending and interested in Conversational AI in games, Smart NPCs, AI Companions, voice-driven gameplay, or more immersive player interactions, we would be happy to chat.

We're excited to share that Neocortex has been selected for the @fal Startup Program in Europe!
This gives us access to powerful infrastructure to scale our AI-driven NPC platform, especially as we expand into visual features for characters.

There's a common narrative failure in games:
You finish a character's questline, then they reset into a static NPC with 3 looping lines.
Not a content problem. An architecture problem.
At Neocortex we're building characters with memory, evolving state, and real-time responses.
We've been continuing to expand Neocortex, to give developers more control over how their AI characters behave, sound, and evolve. These features are part of our ongoing effort to make building AI-driven characters and interactive experiences simpler and more powerful.
We're shipping three new features!
📜 Conversation Flows: Design structured conversation paths for your characters.
🗣️ Voice Cloning & Voice Design: Characters can now have fully customized voices.
📊 Analytics: You can now observe how your characters are actually being used.
AI Darth Vader in Fortnite last year and now Gemini's pure world model show how fast AI is evolving.
We'll see constant leapfrogging between engine centric AI and world model centric AI until they come together for maximum effect.
