Sounds like you're trying to play it like Zork too.
It's better to treat it more like collaborative story telling. It will let you "do" whatever you want. You don't have to 'check inventory'. If you want to shoot someone with a bow, you say "I shoot the knight with the bow". And you've done it.
It never contradicts you and says "You can't do that, you don't have a bow." It just rolls with whatever you've just said.
And it gets things wrong, sure. It sometimes has characters say things that I'm like "No wait, I was the one that said that, why are you acting like you said it?" Or contradicts what just happened. Or has you move into places that don't make logical sense (like exiting a detached garage at your house to enter a small room, etc), but correct it and go on.
But one thing it lets you do is either have it retry, or you can just click and edit their response to something you would rather it be.
"But why don't I just write a story on my own if I have to edit it to be what I want?"
Because it comes up with shit that I would never think of on my own. I fought an evil Super-Man in the bottom of the sea, and he chased me into a classroom, and saw a dog behind the desk, and got distracted from attacking me and wanted to pet the dog.
Even better, later we won a trip to the Louvre. The Louvre welcomed us as if it were a towering person, put on a fancy dress, and when we entered, Mona Lisa came back from the dead to give autographs next to its painting, the third floor had Poussin paintings running around as if in a horse race, and another floor let you walk into a painting, where we entered one with Jesus serving a man and a woman dinner, and Jesus offered us each two plates, one with a pea and one with a feast, and the signs heaven and hell under them, and whatever one we ate was the one we went to.
Some of that was me guiding the story a little, but I wouldn't have thought to direct the story that way if not for some of the unexpected things generated by the A.I.
I've played Zork. Zork has puzzles to solve, something AI Dungeon can't handle, but AI Dungeon has a lot more freedom.
