Abstract
Cutting-edge technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have helped elevate the digital storytelling and gaming experience. At the same time, powerful new Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT by OpenAI, have taken over the Information Technology (IT) world promising amplification of the user experience in multiple contexts. This paper sets out to explore the utilisation of ChatGPT for managing the dialogue between players and avatars in serious games. Our work is performed in the context of the LAW-GAME project that develops a social AI-powered VR game platform targeting specifically the training needs of Law Enforcement Agencies. Specifically, we focus on one of the platform’s gaming modes, namely the Police Interrogation, which aims at a realistic interactive dialogue between a human player (the police officer) and an AI-assisted non-player character (the suspect).
