Most AI NPC demos fall apart after three minutes.

The first conversation is impressive. Then the character forgets something it said, contradicts the story, or says something that doesn't fit the world.

What's solved: natural-sounding dialogue, flexible responses.
What isn't: consistent memory, staying in character over hours, behaving predictably enough for a designer to rely on.

The next real step isn't smarter NPCs. It's NPCs a designer can control.

If you've seen one that holds up over a long session, I'd like to know.
