    I’ll preface by saying I don’t think it’s a good idea, but-

    Fallout TV Show (and friends) have brought a lot of new people to gaming that might have eschewed it before, a lot of those people have no idea what they’re doing in videogames.

    An ‘AI assistant’ could help in a face-saving way (consider a 60 year old father who’s never played, and possibly chastised games in the past, is now getting into Fallout NV due to the TV show - asking their kids that they ridiculed about games would be embarrassing, but asking an AI may not be)

    Basically, letting old people who hated videogames, play videogames.

      Why must people pay video games? If people don’t like it, just don’t play it. Watch a YouTube playthrough if you must.

      Automating the experience of art is such a dystopian nightmare.

        Also they’ll quickly learn about games where you need to git gud. Most games, especially recently, come equipped with a “baby mode storytime” difficulty setting, and theres more slice-of-life job-simulator games than ever.

        If you try and go from “games are for children im too old for these newfangled marios” to “bullethell deathfest 6” youre gonna have a bad time
