I spent like 4 hours using it to make a DND character, form a backstory with various made up events and shit, basically a 1-man DND campaign. I’ll never actually use that character, since it was just for fun. Beyond that, mostly just brainstorming things that I can’t get from a basic Google search. That seemed like an appropriate use of the service.
That’s kinda the first thing I did when I tried it. But it doesn’t take long to realize it’s just NOT an interesting story teller. It tends to be bland and predictable and terrible at continuity.
I’ll use it to fill in background details sometimes like hey I need a name with similar demographics / vibes to “Karen” but less obvious that that’s the character I’m making. Or I need to fill in 3 people for this characters friend group like their names, talk and dress styles, and how they met give me 7 options for each to pick from.
Yeah, I learned pretty quickly that it wasn’t very dynamic, it basically did what I wanted it to. It even forgot information that I had to re-train back into the story. I was mostly directing, navigating if you will, while it drove.
And while it was reasonably competent, it would never be something I use to do all my work. Actually did that for a job before, and it sucked ass.
Same. I’ve used it to write fake bios for characters in single-player, party-based games that required them. When it comes to producing words regardless of their connection to reality/truth value, it’s been solid. I still felt slightly icky when I learned about their energy consumption though…
Yeah, the energy consumption is an issue. I wouldn’t think text-based uses would be too intensive, more the graphics and video stuff. But I dunno. I don’t use it very often.
