Using AI to help write freeform larps

A couple of years ago, I wrote a series of posts on my blog about using AI to help write freeform larps.

I'm not going to move them to this blog, but instead I will link to them. (I have no doubt I will revisit the subject in due course.) And I'm not going into the ethical or moral considerations of using AI to create games.

It's worth noting that AI has moved on since 2023, and no doubt the AI responses would be better.

Using AI to help write freeforms was my first post, where I take a few tentative steps in exploring how AI might help identify potential characters for a freeform.

Using AI to help write freeforms: Plots looked at using ChatGPT to help write plots. The takeaway for me, was not to take AI's first response, but to ask further questions.

Using AI to help write freeforms: Angst covered the challenge of writing an angst-filled plot.

Using AI to help write freeforms: Hordes looked at using ChatGPT to help writing a horde game.

My AI takeaways

AI is great for brainstorming and coming up with ideas.

AI is terrible at producing finished text. You will need to edit it.

To get the best from AI, ask questions and drill into the answers.
