Up to you whether you want to limit your answer to software that is possible/realistic

Yes, that is something that modern AI could have some value in a game. Not AI-generated assets (graphics and music), not even AI filling in for lazy writters, but AI providing emergent story and gameplay. Like Dwarf Fortress, but LLMs instead of some "simple" hardcoded rules. This should be a genre of its own, not something pushed to every game, though.

    It's a great idea in theory, but the reality is that LLMs just aren't actually very good at that kind of thing.

    Depending on the temperature of the model their writing is either painfully bland and repetitive, or it's the kind of "creative" that's driven by randomness, so you'll get completely out of pocket replies that just don't fit the situation at all.

    The answer to what this person is looking for is simple; find a good group to play tabletop RPGs with. Software is never going to give you that experience.
