Yeah it's great! I tried every trick in the book to make it happen :) so I just lost the hostage twice... unfortunately, but managed the third time to rescue them pretty fast in the end which I was pleased with. What's your future plans for the negotiation game?

Most people that I've showed the hostage scenario to have failed, so that's really awesome that you got it! Right now, I'm not too sure about where to take the negotiation games. I was hoping that the educational aspect of it might make it good fit for universities to use it in their classes? Or maybe something else? If you happen to have any ideas, would love to hear it :P

  I think you would also get some interest from business, if you end up with some specific business examples e.g. contract negotiation over goods or services, or a contract breakdown and negotiating to fix things. I could see less experienced negotiators learning much more from this than some dry slide deck or role play scenario, and even experienced ones using it for fun and extra learning. Perhaps even if you could allow a business to customise a scenario to be tailored to their needs, e.g. you provide the platform and prompts required to get it to work, then the business then provides a layer of prompts for their own context. I'm just free-thinking here really, I know in the back end it can take a lot of work to build things so good luck!!

    Oh yeah that makes a lot of sense! Wouldn't actually be too hard to let people customize scenarios + personalities to "simulate" negotiations before they go into one. The real issue would be the unit economics here since GPT-4 is quite expensive for a single play through! I wonder which type of businesses would have the budget to pay for a more refined version of this demo?
