Words Plus

Overview

"Words Plus" visualizes the process of AI learning human language as a journey of exploration using environmental narrative.

The player becomes an ignorant AI boy and explores the world of human language. From a childlike perspective, you experience how increasingly weakened semantics and extreme language shape the AI boy step by step into a "complete human."

Concept

In modern internet contexts, language has undergone significant changes. Language and its underlying semantics have been dramatically weakened or mismatched with original emotional information. This has led to proliferation of high-intensity "new languages."

Today, internet expressions like "ha ha" carry perfunctory connotations. It takes considerable effort to convince others of genuine happiness. Exaggerated words like "YYDS" dominate expression. When did we become unable to express true feelings without extreme language? As language habits become dominated by internet slang, how will thinking based on these patterns develop?

The game studies semantic inflation, its causes, and future impact. It uses GPT-3 AI natural language processing to generate text and applies gamification design to explore digital narrative possibilities based on AI.
