At Arcane, we're building a AI-powered platform for storytelling and role-playing games. You create a rich world world of characters, locations, storylines and items, and then play games in that world. We use generative AI all over Summon Worlds: to create summons, help run games, invent stories, and for character chat. We're building an AI that can quickly invent a rich world, and then create storylines, have NPCs with rich dialogue and backstories, and create games that are immersive and fun to play.
