Ever heard of... ehm... I work with writing virtualization related stuff and lets just say that in 10 years things will have changed a lot.

Basically the most likely scenario for handling AI's, and even NPC's, etc, would be to run them separately under virtual machines. For many reasons, including dealing with inevitable hardware failures.
Ok, you are right I have forgotten that it plays in 2022 , but right now not rly as Virtual machines in the moment simply couldn't handle an entire AI (apart from the point that a real AI still has to be created ), but yes in 10 years that will be most likely the case

EDIT: And yeah I have heard of all these but as I said made the foolish error to put the situation in nowadays computer industry XD
