~Could bots and AI be the next source of LOTC tavern activity?~ As a long-time player of the Lord of the Craft, I've noticed that the quality of roleplay in taverns can often be lacking compared to other areas of the server. One reason for this is that many players who engage in tavern RP (aka Tavern RPers) are not as skilled writers as others on the server. Recently, I've been experimenting with using ChatGPT to generate roleplay in taverns, and the results have been impressive. Not only does ChatGPT write better than the typical LOTC player (especially Tavern RPers), but it also never logs offline or needs to take a break. Additionally, any grammatical mistakes that the bot makes are similar to those that roleplayers make more frequently, such as using "would" too often or referring to characters in the wrong tense. Given these benefits, I believe that LOTC should consider replacing Tavern RPers with bots hooked up to ChatGPT. Not only would this improve the overall quality of roleplay in taverns, but it would also free up human players to engage in more high-quality roleplay elsewhere on the server. Here's an example of a tavern scene generated by ChatGPT: Prompt: "write me a fantasy tavern scene and dialogue between a one-eyed bartender who lost their eye in the tenth nordling war and a female wizard patron with a peg leg" Result: It's worth mentioning that the above feedback is strictly for the sake of argument and i'm not promoting the idea of replacing human players with bots as a good practice, as Roleplaying with real humans, who can bring their own creativity and spontaneity, is an essential part of the overall experience.
