From the early Adventures of Jon Smithe, Imperial Scout - Using ChatGPT

Spinward Scout

After reading CyborgPrime's thread about a Virtual GM, I thought I'd try ChatGPT again. Wow, this was fun. The only things it got wrong was that it wasn't Shadows like I ask and I wasn't in my Vacc Suit at one point, but ChatGPT thought I was. I also don't think it understood the Attributes of my character, but wow, it got everything else right and in a ton of detail.

I'm going to ty this again very soon.

Hi ChatGPT, can you run a role-playing adventure from the Mongoose Publishing game Traveller called Shadows, with me as a Detached Scout Character, with appropriate skills and equipment, and you as all of the other characters?

ChatGPT
Of course! I'd be happy to run a role-playing adventure for you in the Traveller universe. As a Detached Scout character, you'll have access to specialized skills and equipment that are ideal for exploration and reconnaissance missions. Before we begin, let's start by creating your character. Could you please provide me with some details about your Detached Scout character, such as their name, background, skills, and equipment?

Now that we have your character established, let's begin the adventure. You are currently aboard your Detached Scout ship, the Penumbra Mystic. As the ship's commander and sole crew member, you have been assigned a mission to investigate a mysterious anomaly detected in a remote sector of space. The anomaly is believed to be a potential gateway to unexplored regions of the universe.

You receive a message from your superiors at the Scout Service, providing you with the coordinates of the anomaly and instructing you to gather data, conduct scans, and report back any significant findings. The journey to the anomaly will take several weeks, during which you'll have time to prepare and plan.

What would you like to do next, Commander?


EDIT: Here's the full game.

Hmmn. Probably want to validate the character against the chargen system (could it have resulted from the process?) unless you gave it that as part of the prompt.

Pretty impressive-looking though (which is exactly what it's good at). Remember that it does not actually know the rules -- it's just coming up with text that is consistent with what its algorithms think a valid response looks like.

:)

I made the Character in RPGSuite. I copied and pasted it into ChatGPT. Which part is wrong?
