  • There are lots of ways an LLM could effectively improve an rpg game.

    Unfortunately, the people who are using LLMs either do not have the finances needed to do it correctly, or they’re attempting to make it do something that it is not actually good at.

    The ideal scenario for it would be for unimportant and trivial NPCs to have an actual world that is going on actively, a world that they interact with and comment on and respond to.

    However, for that to work, there needs to be some way for an LLM to have memory and to store the events that are happening in the world.

    Aside from that, the LLM would need to respond accordingly as events progress over time, to react to the events that the Player Characters themselves are a part of, for news to be regional, and for the characters on one side of the planet to not know about the events that happened on the other side of the planet if there was no logical way for that information to make that distance.

    The only way to make something like that work would be to have several LLMs with their own event memory banks, all running in parallel tied to different regions and different types of NPCs.

    in which case you’re talking about a MMORPG with LLMs.

    Given how people finding out that textures were generated with AI and it cost what seems to be a very good game several awards, I doubt that any company with pockets deep enough to pay for the server space necessary to run the LLMs to power such a system are going to do anything like that anytime soon.





  • “I should be allowed to mock you, but you shouldn’t be allowed to do anything about it” < your words

    Isn’t not giving Dave Chappelle money or time or attention the grand sum of things that you can do about his stance without violence?

    I think you and I have had interactions elsewhere on Lemmy, and typically they’re very antagonistic and I don’t know why that is.

    I earnestly try to be a reasonable person and to express my views without judgment of other people.

    I do this in hopes that debate produces something positive, but from what I remember, typically, no matter what I say to you, your response is to exacerbate the argument rather than resolve it.

    Sometimes other people have views that do not mesh with yours, yet they are not your enemy.

    I know trans people. I have trans friends. I live in a very progressive area by choice. I have gone to protests to protect women and trans people alike.

    I am an ally, and if you think that me believing or having a reason to believe that Dave Chappelle is also an ally makes me not an ally, then that’s pretty much the end of the conversation, right?


  • Are you suggesting violence as an appropriate response to his commentary?

    Have you encountered anyone who has been emboldened to commit either emotional or physical crimes against another person because of something Dave Chappelle has said or done?

    If so, then I’m more than willing to change the way I view his schtick, but I cannot find any correlation between an increase in any sort of hurt or violence towards trans people, and anything Dave Chappelle has said or done.

    I think he’s serving as a pressure release valve for the people who have never encountered a trans person (who was not masking their transness) or who have suddenly been thrust into the realization that the world contains trans people and don’t know how to cope with it.

    Therefore I feel like the things that he says have an overall net positive effect on the way trans people are treated, even though he himself looks and sounds like a piece of shit saying it and that he offends trans people when he says it.
