Im a forever DM. We play DND for fun not inventory management, anything tedious like that just isn't what I want to spend time in a game on.
You can keep ChatGPT on in the background so that she/he can keep inventory for you guys. Like a mystical miserable fuck.
Why would you use ChatGPT to emulate a word processor? You get all the functionality you need without ever hitting enter.
I'm wondering if they mean have ChatGPT reading the messages in Discord and automatically tracking it? It should be able to do that, but I'm not sure about the specifics. And it's not something LLMs are good at, so you have to be able to work around it. It would basically need to notice whenever you use an item, then tell something else to remove that from you inventory.
that assumes that all discussion is made via text chat and not voice chat. Any item usage that goes un-typed is lost.
True. Also, it assumes that the parent commenter was being at least a little bit reasonable and trying to work backwards from there. Maybe I should have asked them if that's what they were doing.
If they're talking discord specifically I've seen bots in servers that track inventory for you. Just click a button. If they can be arsed to do that then they're truly beyond help.
Assuming it works, they are clearly not beyond help. If you find yourself constantly forgetting to click the button, there's no shame in finding some workaround. And solving small problems is half the fun of being a programmer.
