According to Campfire co-founder Siamak Freydoonnejad, the AI-driven characters in Cozy Friends will remember past interactions, retain important information, and exhibit a high level of emotional intelligence, creating a dynamic and varied gameplay experience.
Officials stated "Users can interact with agentic AI companions capable of speaking and taking action, embarking on emergent adventures across different games and apps while maintaining the context of your relationship. This makes the experience more social, more human-like, and much more fulfilling. People can go from playing their favorite game or scrolling their favorite app with these companions, to even confiding about their daily experiences. It’s really important to make emotionally intelligent and ethical companions and that’s our mission at Campfire."
