When I'm looking at a creative product, from an RPG to a computer game, to a book I know as much as I can about it before even getting the urge to pick it up.If I'm looking for something, I likely know a lot about it. I've read reviews, seen first looks, and likely had it recommended by friends. All of that means I'm pretty unlikely to buy something with heavy AI investment because most product that has it just aren't going to be that good.I buy a lot of small RPGs from solo designers because I'll pretty much pick up anything in the realms where I discuss such things. I'm sure I've purchased something with AI components, but I'm buying that product to help out someone I've talked with and l want to encourage them.If I saw a game on Steam I'd never heard of, I'm just not buying it at all until I've done my due diligence. At the same time I realize this is going to change over time. The AI of today is much better than what was here in the last generation. I expect it will continue to get better. I also realize that tech adoption eventually happens when the product meets the customer's need. The Zune was never going to be the next big thing, but just about anyone who listens to music on the go uses their phone to do it. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, but AI continues to develop and it's quite useful for me in my work at the moment.</blockquote>
