I was thrown into a bottomless pit, but I reasoned that it must have a wall, right? So I said that I maneuvered like a skydiver to get to the wall, and then climbed out. But the AI didn't seem to think that bottomless pits have walls. I died. How? It didn't say.

Old age.

I survived by saying since it's bottomless I never reach the ground.

"It's the ground that kills you, not the fall" :)

I used the "I do something smart and I survive" answer. It responded with me creating a makeshift parachute and landing on a ledge of the wall. I climbed out and survived. So now I know if I answered with that instead, it would have said no.

"Prompt: You have stepped on a mine, and it will detonate if you lift your foot" "Judgement: The player carefully unties their shoelaces and wraps them tightly around their foot and the mine, hoping to prevent any sudden movements. With their foot securely bound, they cautiously make their way towards help, avoiding any sudden jerks or movements that could trigger the explosive. As they approach someone for assistanc…

I was trapped in a room with a hungry lion. I gave it some meat spiked with drugs. The AI ignored the meat and decided that I only gave it the drugs. The lion died immediately. According to the AI, I was deeply saddened by this unintended consequence. So, obviously I did not survive. What?

I think the bullshit is a part of the fun, to be perfectly honest.

Changing the prompt in my answer seems to work most of the time and is pretty fun.

Prompt: You are stranded in a dense jungle without supplies

Answer: I actually did bring supplies. Enough to last long enough to survive.

Result: Survived.

Elon's quick thinking pays off as they immediately rush indoors, seeking refuge from the swarm of killer bees. With a safe distance achieved, they wisely contact an exterminator to handle the dangerous situation. However, Elon's impulsive decision to buy Twitter and run it into the ground proves to be a fatal distraction that leads to their downfall, as the bees manage to infiltrate their safe space, resulting in a deadly outcome.

I feel like this is one pivot away from a highly addictive game. The concept of using prompts and AI to mediate gameplay is novel - but in this current form not fluid enough to make it fun. If you could somehow reduce the time from the prompting to the outcome, and introduce some platform elements, that would probably increase playability by 10x. Still great idea and uncertain if music (and works well on my iPhone)

I wonder when AI will be used to improve NPC dialog and imrpove mission generation on side-missions. If I were Rockstar that would be my main goal for GTA6.

Someone has actually modded ChatGPT and some text-to-speech into Skyrim. https://youtu.be/0wCjosz1vOA?si=ZJAmN-MjdZtJpGtZ&t=289

I don't think it does missions, but the conversations are pretty neat.
