I disagree vehemently and violently with this suggestion. Dwarf Fortress's charm results from human-crafted procedures interacting in unexpected and fascinating ways. If ChatGPT (or other AI bullshit generators) were used instead, it would change the experience entirely.

What do you mean "instead"? A custom GPT would have to be crafted for this game by humans anyway, and used to augment the human-written content. Much of this game's gameplay is emergent and hard to predict using deterministic algorithms.

You gotta admit DFs name / description generation is just gobbledygook most of the time. Tastefully applied, AI bullshit generators will do wonders to readability.

  Yes, it's janky - but I _like_ the jankiness. Not everything needs to be perfectly formatted with ideal flow and Hemingway-esque readability.

  The gobbledygook is absolutely the point! It’s charming, fun, and gives the game a constant stream of interesting interactions.

Why are you so aggressively dismissing ChatGPT? Maybe it has no place in this game but it's a technological marvel nonetheless.

I violently AGREE with you! <the severed comment flies off in an arc!>
