Sharing this post I made 5 months ago:

I'm an IT consultant and I had a meeting with AWS yesterday. My manager asked me to give the AWS team an overview of our solution so they could see what they could use for a new program they were pitching our clients. That's all the information I had, so I started the meeting by saying "I'm not sure what you all are proposing, so I'm going to give you a high level but please let me know where you need more details."

After I had finished giving my overview, I tried to get more info out of them about what they were proposing to build. I shit you not, their response was that they wanted to "build an app that allowed the business to run with AI and ML (Machine Learning).”

They didn't say, "we want to solve X and Y problems" or "enable Z functionality." Literally their entire goal was to build something with AI. I'm glad I wasn't on camera or in person, because I literally face-palmed.

Time to "build" a D&D campaign with an LLM as the DM.

If someone poured a shitload of money into it, and had actual humans on quality control and some writing... You could generate a setting with a bunch of NPCs who have generated back stories and connections and shit.

And it would still come out as some of the blandest of bland as for as game went. But hey, a bad game is better than no game right?
