Why Do NPCs Seem Smarter Than My Coworkers in Budget Meetings?

Ever noticed how NPCs in games can adapt, follow complex scripts, and even pretend to have personalities meanwhile, in budget meetings, it feels like my coworkers are stuck on a single dialogue loop? I get that real-life interactions are messy, but you’d think with all the tech we have, collaboration would feel slightly more dynamic.

Is it just me, or does anyone else wonder if there’s a way to bring some of that algorithmic efficiency (or at least the illusion of it) to the conference room? Maybe it’s an AR overlay for agendas or a stock-market-style dashboard for tracking discussion points. Would love to hear if anyone’s found creative ways to make meetings feel less like a broken quest line.
