The generative agents research paper sparked massive waves across the AI community. It introduced a compelling vision of what's possible, yet the real-world implementation hasn't matched that promise. Beyond the initial proof of concept, few teams pushed it further. What's fascinating is how this opens up an entirely new frontier for gaming—imagine NPCs and game worlds powered by these adaptive, reasoning-driven agents. The potential is there; we're just scratching the surface of what autonomous agents could do in interactive entertainment.

Sounds great in theory, but the reality is quite different.

The theory of talking about military strategy on paper becomes a whole different story when it is implemented in practice.

If game NPCs could truly reason autonomously... that would be so awesome. But on the other hand, most of it is still in the research paper stage.

The paper is indeed amazing, but the implementation is really disappointing, with only a few teams involved.

ngl the paper was pure copium—everyone got liquidated on hype, reality came back swinging hard. gaming angle though? that's where the real alpha might leak, but yeah... few teams got the capital to actually build it out lol
