ChatGPT has been a lifeline for me as a GM with little spare time to prep and far too grand ambitions for the scale and scope of (D&D) campaign I want to run. I’m curious how other GMs have found ChatGPT and similar AI tools useful or helpful in running their own games. I’ll share my own workflow below as a comment, and I hope others find it useful. I’m especially interested in any ChatGPT prompts you have found worthwhile, and you can see some of my own prompts in the examples I’ll share shortly.
I’ve used it for random generation and that’s about it. Before each session I’ll generate a list of random people and stores. I’ve also used it to come up with lists of random items.
It’s basically just an all-in-one random generator for me.
It does seem to do pretty well in that regard. Can I ask if your game is a conventional d&d campaign or something else?
