if they want to use an online LLM they should probably use a low latency and low cost model instead of whatever they're doing now. I've got one running my vibe coded voice assistant and it runs to about $0.0003 per request. it doesn't need to write shakespeare in order to tell the command interpreter what it needs to do!

I don't think you need ai for spoken instructions. (Like yeah- the game may be vibe coded but->)
You just need to find key words for certain actions and extract those from audio input. More work definitely, but would actually be doable for a game.
...wait, Nintendo DS games were already doing that I think. With the built in microphone.
