Reviewing some of the new task-specific Explore GPTs in ChatGPT Part two of an eight-part series of blogs |
---|
Chat GPT now incorporates a range of mini GPTs dedicated to different tasks. We put a few through their paces, so that you don't have to! |
This was a trip down memory lane for me. In the early days of mainframe computing there was a game called Zork which I used to play a bit. Typically you'd get instructions like:
You fall down a hole and find yourself in a cave. There is a drawing on the wall, and an open door with light coming out of it at the end of a long corridor. What do you want to do?
Well, now you can play an AI generated version of this game, complete with images! Here's how my game started:
"You find yourself in a dimly lit, abandoned hotel room. The options before you include investigating the wooden door, examining the cracked window, searching the room for useful items, or inspecting the old portraits more closely."
I typed in Inspect the portraits, and got this:
As you closely inspect the portraits, one in particular draws your attention—a stern-faced man holding a key. The lifelike eyes of the portraits seem to follow your every move, creating an eerie atmosphere. This particular portrait could hint at the importance of finding a key for your escape.
I typed in Look behind the portrait for hidden items, and got this:
Behind the portrait, you find a hidden compartment containing a small, dusty box. Inside the box is a rusty old key, likely essential for your escape.
And at this point I gave up, as it was taking tens of seconds to generate each image (I also felt the game lacked subtlety: it seemed like I was being led a lot of the time).
My verdict? I should be impressed by this, as I'm sure it's not easy building and illustrating a story like this on the fly, but surely this isn't the best we can do with AI? It felt that you would only ever play this game to marvel at how it was created.
