    I’ve been having fun making Discord bots that use ChatGPT to generate various things. Stuff like giving tarot readings, creating custom MtG cards and whatnot. Nothing too crazy, but it’s been fun to play around with.

      What wrapper are you using for your bot? I dabbled with discord.py for a while, but the slash-command drama sorta killed my motivation.

        That’s the one I use - I wasn’t aware of any drama.

          Well I suppose that’s good then. It was effectively killing the project last I read about it.

      I was thinking about using something like this to supplement an Information Desk at an in-person conference. In case the desk had to be left unstaffed. I’m not sure how well the target population would respond to the technology though.

        I would be very hesitant about giving people any reason to believe the information given by a GPT algorithm is accurate, unfortunately. Even with the best prompting and few-shot-priming, a lot of what they say will be simply made up.
