It Began as an AI-Fueled Dungeon Game. It Got Much Darker

  I made some absurd down right morally incorrect things on there. For my own entertainment just to see how far things could go. Privately. Not for some pleasure, just curiosity. It's an AI imagining things. If you realize things are just concepts in the world and nothing really matters then you could have fun with this, it's weird. But once I started doing that I just rolled my own locally because I knew this kind of thing was going to happen with their website. Last thing I wanted was any of that getting leaked taken out of context and then connected to me. Private things should stay private and should not get fed back into the system. That's just silly and bad. I might be weird or something but it's just neat to go along with a story in this and then all of a sudden your character just loses all touch with reality and just does all of the incorrect things to literally everyone they come in contact with. Because for some reason the AI likes to forget that someone's body was just completely devastated in some horrifying way and then it makes them get up and talk to you again like nothing just happened. It's just absurd.

  The dark AI aspect seems a bit clickbait like as it seems humans were prompting the content.

  The moderation aspect is interesting.

  It's hard enough to moderate people at scale accurately....can't be easier when the people are utilizing some text generation / ai system.
