How to get the most from it
AI Dungeon sits in AI Experiments under Learn, filed as rabbit hole.
- Open it when the evening is free. It has no natural stopping point.
- It works on a phone or a desktop, so open it on whatever is nearest.
- It works with the sound off, so it is fine on a train or in a quiet office.
- Expect to create an account before you get far.
- Go in expecting something weird and chaotic.
About this category: Models you can play with directly in a tab — generators, guessers, classifiers and the occasional unsettling demo. Understanding by messing about.
