Earlier this year, the AI company Inworld released their tech-demo 'Origins': a detective game built in Unreal Engine in which you try to solve a mystery by speaking directly with your suspects.

Powered by Inworld's character engine, each non-player character you meet in Origins is built to support full voice-based conversations using the latest trends in generative AI technology, each with their own personalities, goals and mannerisms.
In this first of a two-part series, I sit down and give my first impressions of Origins, with a future video detailing how it all works, with insights from Inworld themselves.

You can try it out yourself by downloading Origins for free on Steam:

And if you're a developer yourself, sign up for a free trial of Inworld's tools, and start building your own conversational AI characters
