Nope. An AI that's designed to be a NPC in a game is an NPC, an AI that is designed to run aspects of the game in the background is NOT an NPC, and a Foreign AI that is not part of the game playing the actual game is definitely NOT an NPC.

We are talking about Yui in the game... the character in the game... controlled by the AI - which makes the Character in the game a NPC.
And the issue with Yui is that she doesn't just exist in a game, she exists OUTSIDE of the game.

sigh, did you not read what I wrote, or are you just incapable of comprehending what you read? show me a fully sentient and self-aware AI or a little green man from outer space, or a talking dolphin or mayhaps a talking apple tree, then we can have meaningful discussions on the basic rights of non-human life.
