Based on my experiences with this. Keeping context relevant is the hardest part. Your human GM will remember that funny remark from the session 3 years ago, but the LLM?

Also for that same module, is it able to integrate it in a broader campaign. I expanded the lore and why the players got here with extra quests, fluff and mystery and they only reached said dungeon at 2nd session only.

Also the way a PC died due to a rat bite that could only be cured by magic (5e of this module is ironically harsher than the 3.5) as he was losing max HP every 24H. As the players expressed dislike with that character the owning player was willing to go for a new character and I had planned a big drama scene where the players exit in emergency the dungeon and try to rally the nearet village where there's a priestessd and happens that I could match the rolls so he would die in the priestess hands.

But I made the mistake to allow them to spend the night to get their 3rd level which would have allowed the druid to get his cure illnesses spell botching the set up.

Happens that I decided to exploit the fact that all other character the previous days made an offering to Beshaba to curse that character and force rolls during night (and try to find a way to make the new character come into play).

How it unfolded : - they were sleeping and it was the bard's turn for watch

- the bard was a follower of Tharizdun and was about to sacrifice the dieing character as said character was agonizing

- the new character was a Kara-turian enforcer that was chasing a yokai (he didn't knew) that used other people as disguise, made it happen that the yokai choose the dieing character "by coincidence" appearance

- the yokai being chased opens a portal while hiding to the dungeon

- the new character litteraly pops through a Wild Magic portal that pushed away the bard and tries to bash the old character as the old character runes on his skin glow a last time as he dies and repels everybody

- made the new character pop naked as I wasn't paying attention to what the player was saying when he was listing his inventory

- I let them handle the big mess

It's that: Spacial awareness, struggling to maintain the personas (and often talking for the player/s), difficulty improvising, pacing issues, lack of initiative, and just an over reliance on prompting to keep going correctly.

I think we just haven't built complex enough architectures to allow this. I have a few ideas boiling that would help facilitate long term context understanding and recall.

Neuro-sama, an AI VTuber streamer, manages to do this. There are topics brought along multiple streams and manages to remember details of previous streams.

    With soemthing like Neuro-sama I wouldn't doubt that Vedal is doing a lot of liftwork behind the scenes to keep sufficient context available to Neuro-sama's LLM.

      And with the right kind of engineering, that could be automated too.

      I don't think the results would be as good as they are now - Vedal is bringing his own perspective into it - but once you have a proof of concept, you can improve it.

I'd love to see some human & machine co-op for DM. That'd be super helpful.

    Now this is solid, like an ai enhanced Evernote, but for organization, not generation/creation.

      I've been meaning to take a crack at doing this - I'd like to use Whisper to transcribe session recordings and then have an LLM build out a campaign wiki. I enjoy being a DM but note taking and organization is my least favourite part.

    I've used LLM's in this capacity, and it's awesome. It quickly becomes a crutch.
