Discussion
20 comments analyzed.
Competitors mentioned: System prompts on any LLM, Character chatbots available on existing platforms
Concerns raised: Bot can't capture deep insightful conversations or maintain consistency, Writing style remains generic/ChatGPT-like across different personas, Ethical issues around creating chatbots of real people without consent, Bot behavior becomes unconvincing when probed or in edge cases, Subject (Chomsky) no longer provides fresh takes due to stroke in 2022
Feature requests: Better personality differentiation beyond generic LLM tone, Improved handling of edge cases and probing behavior, State management for contextual persona shifts
