[QUOTE="Keovar, post: 8939685, member: 23356"] No matter how good the pie may be, it’s still rude to OGLe the ORC. i really don’t see why people think this thing is going to replace DMs, write term papers, or do anything else besides serve internet search results. Google has cause for concern, but the chatbot isn’t doing anything more than some random tables could do for an RPG, and for the rest, it jumbles things from different sources so often that you’re going to have to check the results afterward anyway, because it mixes things up or just fails to understand the request. I asked ChatGPT to rewrite a Bruce Dickenson song in the poetic style of Emily Dickenson, and it really didn’t sound like either. I asked it to rewrite Shakespeare’s Sonnet 116 as a horror story, and the first third of what it returned was a near-verbatim plagiarism of Poe’s [I]The Raven[/I]. These are intentionally weird requests, but that’s the sort of thing which would test human-level creativity. Reporting on ChatGPT makes the chat bot out to be some kind of savant, writing amazing things in seconds. It’s funny in the absurdist sense, but it’s not going to become the next Monty Python. I also asked it to write a scene in which Arther from MPatHG meets Brian from TLoB, and it was somewhat absurd, but not particularly funny. [/QUOTE]
