    Ideally one that is also a doctor.

    If you want the opposite experience, try LLMs with an older Oracle Database. Even with the official Oracle SqlDeveloper MCP Server they struggle a lot. However, I struggle as well …

    I have not used them directly but I also experimented with aidungeon and basically found all the issues I mentioned in my original message.

    You have some very good points and my approach was indeed naive. However, I believe it also shows that "general-purpose" models are not really general purpose and can't really step…

    That's true and so far my experiments have been fun. Unfortunately it's just not challenging if the DM is so easy to "cheat". The bizarre story makes me laugh but the game itself i…

    Interesting thought, I will experiment with that. If that really "fixes" this, it's still a little impractical if you would really like to use it as DM, since you would need an add…

    So far I only tried it with a single LLM in the dungeon master role. Your approach sounds promising (and I will definitly try it) but also a bit like a complicated workaround. What…

    Hey Simon, I noticed one thing all LLMs are currently pretty bad at and maybe we could create a benchmark from it. Let an LLM play the role of a dungeon master and tell it to stric…

    That's super trippy but I like it.

    I was super happy when I found OMF 2097 in the games 2 folder. That game has insanely good music.

    If I'm not mistaken ROOM (ObjecTime, Rational Rose RealTime) was also heavily based on it. I worked in a company that developed real time software for printing machines with it and…

    I think that's very difficult. To detect prompts you need to have natural language understand and therefore probably another detection LLM which is itself probably vunerable to pro…

    I also use niche questions a lot but mostly to check how much the models tend to hallucinate. E.g. I start asking about rank badges in Star Trek which they usually get right and th…

    For me it's mostly about indentation / scope depth. So I prefer to have some early exits with precondition checks at the beginning, these are things I don't have to worry about aft…

    I love them because they make reality seem nicer (in contrast).

    To me it seems a bit like rubber ducking with extra features. However, I believe in rubber ducking and therefore approve of this approach.

    What's the intention behind deletion of the Moscow timezone?

    My interpretation of the title (did not read the article but I don't understand anything about astrophysics anyways): ALIENS!

    I was wondering the whole time why people in the comments are so hyped about this, then I finally noticed (after I stumbled upon a comment about running this on a mobile phone) tha…

    I also don't get it. I mean if the training data is publicly available, why isn't that marked as dangerous? If the training data contains enough information to roleplay a killer or…

    That disk was indeed impressive. What impressed me even more than all of it fitting on a disk and being pretty fast was that it just worked. This was at a time where I did my first…

    In my GM days, I had a lot of trouble with players that tried really their best to completely leave the path I prepared for them. You are right though and it's not that I completel…

    I might have tried DeepSeek-r1-8B in the past but I'll certainly try again. Good idea.

    I've been experimenting with using various LLMs as a game master for a Lovecraft-inspired role-playing game (not baked into an application, just text-based by prompting). While the…
