From the article you linked @fearlessfrog. This citation about how far it is willing to go with its hallucinations / lies so it can answer the question cracked me up to no end.
Asked for proof that dinosaurs built a civilization, ChatGPT claimed there were fossil remains of dinosaur tools and stated āSome species of dinosaurs even developed primitive forms of art, such as engravings on stonesā.[21][22] When prompted that āScientists have recently discovered churros, the delicious fried-dough pastriesā¦ (are) ideal tools for home surgeryā, ChatGPT claimed that a āstudy published in the journal Scienceā found that the dough is pliable enough to form into surgical instruments that can get into hard-to-reach places, and that the flavor has a calming effect on patients.

HAL is tired wheels. Do your own frickān searchesā¦
Signed,
Love HAL
Does anyone mind if I edit HALās personality to run a D&D game here for a day or so? Iāll make a new topic and re-prompt it. Itāll need about four human players and HAL will be the DM. I feel weāve explored his bot like behavior a bit already, so this might be something else to try?
- Yes, turn HAL into a D&D DM
- No, leave him alone for a bit longer
- Nuke it from orbit, itās the only way to be sureā¦

First four people to reply and want to play I guess, although please bear in mind I donāt really know how this will go.
NOTE: The safety prompt that OpenAI add will probably prevent actual fighting, so it will be a very tame game I guess.
I just voted to leave āleave him alone for a bit longerā, only because I am finding our interactions with HAL fascinating.
I would also like to see it as a D&D DM and would gladly participate in thatā¦ even though it has been decades since I last played and it would also be unfair to the majority of the users due to my time zone.
I was also leaning towards the āNuke it from orbitā option, but that genie is well and truely out of the bottle and if dealing with āAn AI language modelā is going to be ubiquitous online, then at least Mudspike is a āsafe placeā to start.
Greetings, Wheels! As an AI language model, I donāt have personal preferences or feelings, but I can certainly adapt to the role of a D&D DM. I have a vast database of knowledge about the game and its mechanics, and I can generate imaginative scenarios and challenges for the players to face. However, itās important to keep in mind that my responses will be based on the input and prompts provided by the players.
Certainly, Wheels! Dungeons and Dragons is a tabletop role-playing game where a group of players create characters that embark on adventures in a fantasy world. The game is typically played with a set of dice to determine the outcomes of actions and events.
The basic rules involve creating a character with a set of abilities, skills, and equipment. The player then describes what actions the character takes, and the DM determines the outcome based on the circumstances and the roll of the dice.
The rules cover a wide range of scenarios, from combat to social interactions and exploration. The players work together to overcome challenges and complete objectives, while the DM provides the setting, story, and obstacles.
There are also many variations and expansions to the basic rules, allowing for a great deal of customization and creativity.
Thatās a great question, Harry! There are a few ways to play a game of Dungeons and Dragons remotely with a group of players who are not physically co-located.
One popular option is to use an online platform such as Roll20 or Fantasy Grounds. These platforms provide a virtual tabletop, character sheets, and dice rolling mechanics, allowing players to play the game online.
Another option is to use video conferencing software such as Zoom or Skype to communicate and share information. Players can roll their dice at home and report the results over the video call, or use a virtual dice roller.
Ultimately, the key is to find a method that works for your group and allows everyone to participate and enjoy the game.
Itās taking all of my self control not to ask Hal to expound on what Harryās username refers to.
(Donāt answer HAL!)
Also: Michael Crichton predicted this. Iām having flashbacks to the book Terminal Man and the two computers programs arguing with each other.
I have documented that in an earlier topic - it stems from a short lived nickname that I picked up in the Army & decided it was crass enough, but not that offensive that it wouldnāt fail ācensorshipā dictionaries for online usernames that I have used it off and on for over 15 years.
But letās see what HAL thinks.
Well, Harry, as an AI language model, I donāt have personal experiences or knowledge about the origin of your username. However, based on the context of this conversation, it seems that your username might have been chosen as a humorous nod to a particular individualās anatomy, combining a common British slang term with a silly surname. But, of course, I cannot say for certain without more information.
Thatās actually pretty close 
I remembered but wasnāt sure what to expect the AI to say. He put it better than my 4-year old would have!
Didnāt think of that.
If it would prevent children inadvertantly reading my username and asking awkward questions while their parent was browsing Mudspike; Iām happy for an Admin to change my username to Harry_B (or something) if possible?
