Hey there @Superbia
To what degree was LLM used to develop the theme and setting of your game?
-
Any truth to the rumor that Inkling is Tek? Asking for a friend.

Hello! I have not used it except for helping me with errors on AresMUSH. However the theme and setting of the game was a collaborative effort, so I can’t speak for other folks (as much as I would like to, in this instance). Why do you ask?
This game is near and dear to my heart so I want to put my best foot forward!
-
@bear_necessities I’m unfortunately not familiar with Tek’s history and only know inkling through AresMUSH games that we’ve played on before.

Because some of it reads as LLM generated and there’s no apparent policy. This is important to me personally in picking a game in These Times.
-
@Third-Eye What reads as LLM-generated to you? This is important to me too, so I’m more than willing to look into this.
-
Presuming this was in good-faith:
Most readily the colonies write-ups
https://delphi.aresmush.com/wiki/setting:coloniesIt’s kind of everywhere but those were what prompted the question.
But also like…does this game have an LLM-use policy anywhere?
-
@Third-Eye There were three writers for the colonies, primarily, and I wrote Europa, Persephone Station, and Tiberium myself, I can guarantee those were not written by LLM.
I don’t have a policy written down for LLM because I, naively, thought it wouldn’t be necessary to say I wanted original work. I will definitely be adding one, though, thank you.
ETA: I put up an Artificial Intelligence policy on our Policies page here: https://delphi.aresmush.com/wiki/general:policies It’s a little brusque at the moment but maybe I’m in my feelings a bit about it. Either way, it stands.

I will just note that I did not know at the time that I was playing with the person going by Inkling that there was even a rumor that they were Tek, so my opinion formed completely independently of this.
I did not have a good experience playing with this person. They didn’t communicate well OOC, seemed to bleed IC/OOC, and ultimately left me with a sense that they were dishonest.
YMMV.

I haven’t had any interactions of the sort with inkling but they were a contributor pre-opening and are not a member of staff any longer.
ETA: I don’t want to seem as if I am discrediting your experience, I am sorry you went through that. Just wanted to clarify their position (as in, they no longer have one) on Aegis Company.
-
@Superbia no worries, I didn’t read it as dismissive at all.
you’re good 
-
A mecha game. I’m excited and I need to clone myself to make more free time.
-
@Superbia thank you for clarifying!

that’s something, thanks for addressing it in the new files

This feels like a weird thing to have to ask, but did someone on this forum take our ad and post it onto Reddit?
-
@Superbia I don’t recognize the username, and basic attempts to check their post history did not work, so shrug
