Ignore it.
If I’m bored I like to have it explain things in various ways. E.g
- Explain ____ in the style of Douglas Adams
- … without using the letter T
- … in cyberpunk style but Elizabethan English
- … as if it were an episode of Family Fued
lol
I asked it to explain global warming without using the letter T, but it somehow just couldn’t understand that it’s replies weren’t allowed to have the letter T in them.
Huh. It worked fine back when 3.5 was first released and now I can’t make it do it at all. Weird.
My favorite use was to create a Discord bot where you could say any card title for a made-up MtG Card, and it generates the card for you, using DALL-E for the card image.
For example, here’s one of my personal favorites using the input “Barney the Dinosaur”:
Since the bottom text is not in cursive, you and your opponent are actually required by the rules to love eachother and eat leaves.
Italic?
Ah, yes. It’s called “kursiv” in my native language, hence my mistake.
Cool fact! Thanks!
Which language?
Norwegian
german too
Wie verwirrend!
A rare intersection of RAW and RAI.
I like that for Barney the Dinosaur, it gave you a green dinosaur instead of a purple one, and its shirt says Barry instead of Barney lmao. Truly fucking nailed it.
Also, like not completely broken. 6 mv for basically 3/3s that could be wiped at any moment is pretty on par for green.
Lol I know absolutely nothing about Magic, so this is total gibberish to me. Is this card really good but not too good “broken” or really bad but not totally useless “broken”?
I would say it’s a very good card, but it’s also quite costly to play. I honestly wouldn’t think twice if I saw a similar card in an actual game.
tapping a 6/6 to make 1/1s would feel weird AF, though
Actually, combined with its other effect, you’d be tapping it to create 3/3s with trample. Not a bad deal at all.
Edit: Oh, and vigilance. I missed that, ironically.
Holy shit I didn’t notice that
until doomblade :p
1/1 with trample 🤣
I have seen more useless cards than a 1/1 token with trample. Get a +1/+1 counter farm going and that’s pretty good.
3/3 as long as this card is around, but the thought of a 1/1 trample does crack me up.
Where can I find this bot?
See this comment.
Tl;dr, I’ll let y’all know when I’m able to share the code.Fair enough, good on you for avoiding a death hug scenario
Omg do u have a repou can share for that it sounds like so much fun
Unfortunately, I was lazy, and I’m webscraping a free MtG card generator to create the cards. I don’t really want to put that code out into the wild and cause problems for the host of that service.
If I can find time, I’ll see if I can figure out a more ethical alternative. When I do, I’ll ping you!
Omg thanks I’d really appreciate that
With PiHole, you can block it from your network. That’s pretty cool.
I use it to add comments to code I don’t understand.
I choose to interpret this as you having chatgpt add incomprehensible comments just to make code more confusing
Or, even worse, adding wrong comments to the code
It codes pretty well for what I need. It helped me write a program for my esp32 to fill out a Google form to populate a Google sheet with temperature humidity and barometric pressure.
Its also helpful me with a visual basic program that checks on 3 temp/humidity sensors in my home. Plots it on a graph and turns on my led lights to a blue and white animation if the temperature falls below the trigger temp. This warns me if it’s close to freezing in my garage. I’m doing my best and trying hard to learn… Ai has been fundamental in me avoiding hours of googling because I don’t quite understand the syntax yet.
Here’s the program in action let me know what you think. It’s the first real program I’ve made. https://youtu.be/T7RhQKH-b70?si=fTgq4_D2w33rGM_2
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I’m terrified for our next junior dev hire if this is common among beginners now lol
So far it has added great comments. It’s also great for helping me learn syntax.
How would you know? You don’t actually understand the code. It could be making shit up, and you’d never have any idea
Seriously dude, if you run into code you don’t understand, take the time to actually understand it, or else you’ll never actually improve
If you do this at your job, get written permission to paste internal code into another company’s data collection engine.
Doesn’t copilot do this? I’m just learning now but it’s so much easier to code even with Bing Ai chat it helps me understand error messages and all sorts of stuff. What do professionals use?
With the right prompt GPT4 can make a decent DM if you want to play a solo story of DnD. I tried this quite a while ago and it was pretty good, probably better now with the bigger context window.
It can also be useful for suggesting recipes based on what you have on hand or what you feel like eating.
I use it to help me DM. A lot of times I have a vague idea and it helps spit out specifics, I can take parts I like, and build the final idea off that. It is also okayish at making stat blocks for me on the fly when someone randomly decides they want to kill something I didn’t plan for (so like basically every session)
It’s great at coming up with ideas for magic items, monsters, traps, plot hooks, etc.
I ran a Christmas session last year, it was a dream session so I handed out tons of magic items cause they wouldn’t be keeping them. ChatGPT generated every single one, and I didn’t tweak anything at all. Which made for a few interesting items with redundant or contradictory stats, but that was explained by it being a dream.
I have used it many times to give ideas for new items, new monsters, etc. Recently I was creating a blood-themed dungeon and asked for monster ideas and it gave me an Animated Bloodpuddle (reflavored Gelatinous Cube with extra abilities), and a Hemogoblin (ravenous blood thirsty goblins). There were others but those ones stuck out as cool and ended up being quite fun for the party.
Hemogoblin is one of the best things I’ve heard that’s delightful
I think this would be a good one to make a GPT of, that way you wouldn’t have to keep prompting it and could refine it more easily as you go.
Oh yeah that’s a good call. Could also give it the rulebook to look up via data retrieval although it generally seems to do a pretty good job without it.
Use it to have low risk conversations to trick your brain into getting extroverted energy
High IQ play right there.
A friend at work had it rewrite the lyrics of Apple Bottom Jeans in the style of Soviet propaganda. One of the lines came out to “shawty is a true socialist hero”. Having it rewrite lyrics in an incongruous style never gets old.
I use it to get ideas and run numbers for my homebrew Pathfinder campaign. That and midjouney and I feel like a real GM.
Same. I’m a new DM (and new to dnd in general, DM’d one one-shot and that’s it, working on a campaign rn) and I use bard to make my narrative ideas fit the mechanics, name homebrew stuff, and clean up the text I’m writing for the players handbook I’m making for this campaign.
I’m a long-time DM and I find ChatGPT awesome for this sort of thing too. I call it my “brainstorming buddy.” Great for bouncing ideas off of, suggesting names for stuff, and so forth.
I’ve found that it’s not very good at game mechanics, though, so don’t rely too heavily on it for balancing stuff.
Oh yeah, I mostly use it to bounce ideas. If it suggest something good, I modify it to make sure if works like I need it to work. Used it to make simple tables and such.
Last thing I used it for was a battle simulation mechanic, in order to have the same effect a huge battle would have, without having tons of different characters to bog down the combat. Havent tested it yet, but it feels like it should work.
I’ve used it a little for RPG gm help, but it wasn’t as great as I would like. Half of it is me needing to be a better GM without the need for such tools, and get better at improvisation.
Oh I totally agree. I’ve been DMing since ad&d. This just makes my life so much easier. I can generate a hundred NPCs with basic back stories to fill a town and let my players run wild. It’s super nice as a tool. I definitely wouldn’t suggest it as a full replacement, but I am thinking about doing one shot where I let gpt run the game and tell it what my players do. Might be fun.
You might want to look into Ironsworn 🤘🏼
Its a pretty good teacher because you can ask the same question over and over until you understand.
There are some limitations. I’ve asked some questions relating to my courses and it doesn’t always get it right.
The biggest issue imo is that due to the way it works, it never just says “i dont know, i dont have information on that topic”. Instead it just makes something up.
Agreed, it’s always confident, but not always correct.
GPT4 or 3.5? What are you studying?
4; microecon. Often when asked to solve cost minimization problems with supplied info, it states the problem can’t be solved, and that there might be a problem with the questions.
Except it refuses to aknowledge wrong knowledge or impossible methods. Until you tell it so, at which point it will agree with you even if you are also objectively wrong to tell it that.
I’ve coherced some systems into doing things they were absolutely not initially meant to do. ChatGTP would straight up tell me wrong and misleading ways to achieve them, and would be too ignorant to realize with enough stubbornness and with existing obscure info and the right mindset, a correct one existed. And at no point, not even with prodding and handholding, would it be able to have a useful conversation surrounding the why’s of the current state of art.
It’s not an expert system and it’s stupid as fuck to treat it as one.
I’m not asking what the answer is. I’m asking why things are done and the answer gives me a few different reasons why it is done. It’s very helpful. The answers all seem reasonable and I’ve not experienced any dumb answers so far.
Don’t use GPT-3.5 for that. It’ll halluzinate pretty quickly. GPT-4 is much better, but it’s still wise to double-check what it says before you make life decisions.
So long as you’re happy potentially getting the wrong answer over and over again.
Such is the process of learning.
I think it depends what you’re trying to learn - I’m slowly teaching myself to use Excel beyond the highschool level understanding I have. It’s easy enough to fact-check ChatGPT because the formula either works or it doesn’t. And I’m not to fussed if everything I learn to do is a total bodge job, because it’s just for my personal development, it’s not something I need for work or doing any serious spread sheeting.
Whenever I’m doing public speaking, I just load my speech into it to rewrite with a specific fog index to make sure everything comes across in an easily digestible format. Similarly, for things that are too dense for me to understand from subjects I’m not well versed in, I’ll load those lectures into it to make it understandable for me.
TIL about fog index, thanks! What’s the last subject you spoke about?

NGL, that drink seems overly sweet and needlessly simplistic (add gin or vodka to the “martini”, FFS), but… I guess?

Damn, what a waste of precious Chartreuse.
I let it rate my day in hundreds and propose some ideas for making it better
Interesting! Care to share an example?
Sure. Here’s an example
Please evaluate my day using a scale from 1 to 100, where 1 represents the worst imaginable day, and 100 signifies the best day of my life. I'd like to understand the factors that influenced this rating and receive recommendations for potential actions or adjustments to enhance my day. Here's a summary of my activities today:It’s definitely not the best prompt so please customize depending on your needs.
Thanks for sharing the prompt! How much detail do you give for any one day?
I personally give it a bullet list of what I did today with more than 5 items. You can also describe what you’ve done today. The more specific it is, the better the results will be.
I just made a GPT for this and it was really awesome! Thanks!
You can give it a website layout made in ms paint and it’ll try to turn it into html and css
You could probably take a picture of a drawing and have it do that, as well
ChatGPT is good in writing regex
And SQL queries!
It’s great for writing simple scripts, if you know what you want you can get it to give you a pretty good base, save starting from scratch
I also kinda want to make “sentient” chess where you have to talk the pieces into moving where you want them and they resist sacrificing themselves
This is an awesome game idea.
That’s an idea from no game no life I think
It is, that’s what made me think of it
