ChatGPT has been a lifeline for me as a GM with little spare time to prep and far too grand ambitions for the scale and scope of (D&D) campaign I want to run. I’m curious how other GMs have found ChatGPT and similar AI tools useful or helpful in running their own games. I’ll share my own workflow below as a comment, and I hope others find it useful. I’m especially interested in any ChatGPT prompts you have found worthwhile, and you can see some of my own prompts in the examples I’ll share shortly.
It does seem to do pretty well in that regard. Can I ask if your game is a conventional d&d campaign or something else?
I use it in 2 campaigns. 1 is traditional D&D in a homebrew setting, and the other is future science fiction. It does very well for the sci-fi one because there’s no preconceptions of setting.
Ah, that makes sense. On one hand I’d think Sci-Fi would be tricky for chatgpt as it’s nowhere near as homogenous as fantasy, but on the other hand (as you say) it’s kind of anything goes all the same, so that’s cool to hear it works out well in the end
