About This Game

AI Pals is your sandbox for endless adventure and role-playing. Empower your creativity and skills by inhabiting roles that challenge and inspire you, while experiencing the thrill of dynamic AI conversations that adapt to your choices and evolve as you interact.
Plus, you don't have to worry about paying for another subscription service. AI Pals is developed with offline first in mind. You can run it completely offline, giving you complete control over your data and AI.

What can I do with AI Pals? - Let your creativity run wild!

Dive into text-based adventures using easy-to-use interfaces or customize your own to interact with AI!
Will you solve a shadowy murder alongside a hard-boiled detective, their words dripping with noir intrigue? Or perhaps journey through enchanted forests guided by a powerful mage? Imagine confiding secrets with a wise AI mentor, their words offering solace, guidance and motivation. The possibilities are as limitless as your imagination.

Select from a diverse cast of AI personalities/roles – friendly characters, storytellers, to even not-so-helpful ones – or be the master of your own universe. Build your OWN Pal from scratch, sculpting their every quirk and characteristic. The creation tools allow you to build characters with completely unique personalities and backstories for truly authentic and immersive experiences.

And what is an AI Pal exactly?

Go beyond personality and craft truly unique companions that reflect YOUR vision. Customize every aspect of your Pal:

• Face: Bring them to life with images, videos, or even dynamic audio-reactive shaders.
  
• Voice: Give them a distinct voice using Text-To-Speech models.
  
• Brain: Change their behavior by assigning different Text AI Models to each Pal.
  
• Creativity: Tune their personality with preset configurations for your chosen AI model.

And there's so much more to discover about this concept! (see planned features in the Early Access description)

AI Pals are meant to be used in AI Spaces - AI SPACES?!

Imagine personalized interfaces tailored to your every need. Customize backgrounds, colors, panels, ... – make each space unique! Position them anywhere on your desktop for instant access to the right Pal at the right time.

Think of it like this: one AI Space dedicated to immersive text adventures with a storytelling Pal, another for brainstorming character backstories or finding inspiration - all seamlessly switchable from your desktop!


And there's more:

• Group Chat: Engage with multiple Pals in dynamic group conversations
  
• Session Based Memory: Add entire documents to a Pal's limited memory so they can look up information during conversations
  
• Function Calling: Experts can expand their Pal's capabilities with custom Python functions

This powerful combination opens up a world of possibilities, and we're just getting started! Explore more feature ideas and support for complex game scenarios in the Early Access description!

Additional Notes for your consideration

Designed for desktop PCs, AI Pals unlocks powerful offline AI experiences. There are quite large models out there, so in other words, the more powerful your PC, the more capable models you can run in terms of output quality and understanding your intent. Modern GPUs are partially supported, with the fastest performance coming from the CUDA 12.1 runtime (NVIDIA RTX cards), and broader but slower support from the Vulkan runtime.

AI Pals comes with an offline AI Guard System that ensures responsible use of AI technology by adhering to the EULA and Steam's Live Content Generation Rules - Please be aware of these rules; they may restrict you. AI Pals was created to entertain, spark imagination, and encourage AI use while helping you discover its potential and limitations. For more information, check out the FAQ thread in the Community Hub!
