Suggestions;
* Color the AIs on the map a different color (maybe only if you’re close to the AI) for better visibility (see note B1)
* Perhaps a pixelated triangle to mark quest areas so that the player can see he/she can get a quest for the area he/she is in

Notes;

(B1) When i stand in front of an AI, there is no clear indication on the map that theres an AI i can talk to. (maybe its’ the color contrast and my eyes,i don’t know but the grey just isn’t that visible for me, perhaps just offer a way to let the player stylize/pick a color for such things?) Even if the grey-pixel AIs aren’t really of much import, they disappear too much with the background.
