I wish it was e, so it could be true.
M is 1000 in Latin, or 8 if you convert from binary, which is 3+3+2, and as we all know 3 ~ π, so M is ~ 2+2π = 2(1+π), and we all know that π goes to 0, for small values of π, leaving us with M = 2. So, Fry was right.
It would be d…
O n e a n D T h r e e 1 2 3 4 5 6 5 4 3 2 1
Or not including one and three
It’s between one and three, not Including one or three
“And”
Or “N”
The natural number e is approximately 2.71828, thus would be between 1 and 3.
I let my players make checks: “what would my character know in this situation?” History roll. Me as DM: “your character would have gone to kindergarten and learned the number 2”
Had a puzzle thrown at me by my DM this weekend.
I have scales but no wings, I guard treasure, precious things. Though I breathe no flame or fire, My riddles stir minds to inquire. What am I?
!a book!<
He admitted it was written by ai. I did not guess correctly.

What kind of scaley books does your DM have?
I wouldn’t have either. At least partially because I have no idea what scales have to do with books.
Right? Throw in a “I have spine, but no arms or legs. Sometimes, I have dog ears.”
That’s what I was thinking at first, but since when do banks have riddles? Though maybe in-universe riddles are considered top of the line security.
Well ever set a password or pin or security question for a bank? You might be able to construe these as riddles…
@Archpawn A passcode is a riddle. A lock is a riddle. The unknown contents of a vault are a riddle.
I’m pretty sure a riddle is a bunch of glowing question mark-shaped trophies scattered randomly across a city.
Books have… Scales? What?
AI sucks at creativity
The ghost of a scholarly dragon. No flame because dead but still being inscrutable with people
Why does it have scales but no wings? Also, lots of living dragons don’t have flame and breathe lightning, acid, poison, or cold instead.
That’s a good point. Maybe it’s a living green drake.
But they have wings. Maybe it’s a kobald that likes riddles.
Scales?
AI doesn’t have a mind to do mental leaps, it only knows syntax. Just a form of syntax so, so advanced that it sometimes accidentally gets things factually correct. Sometimes.
It’s more advanced than just syntax. It should be able to understand the double meanings behind riddles. Or at the very least, that books don’t have scales, even if it doesn’t understand that the scales that a piano has aren’t the same as the ones a fish has.
It doesn’t understand anything. It predicts a word based on previous words - this is why I called it syntax. If you imagine a huge and vastly complicated series of rules about how likely one word is to follow up to, say, 1000 others… That’s an LLM.
It can predict that the word “scales” is unlikely to appear near “books”. Do you understand what I mean now? Sorry, neural networks can’t understand things. Can you make predictions based on what senses you received now?
Well given that an LLM produced the nonsense riddle above, obviously it cannot predict that. It can predict the structure of a riddle perfectly well, it can even get the rhyming right! But the extra layer of meaning involved in a riddle is beyond what LLMs are able to do at the moment. At least, all of them that I’ve seen - they all seem to fall flat with this level of abstraction.
I was guest-DMing. After 1 person hilariously failed a challenge that another player came up with a completely different solution, they were presented with a thick stone door. On the door was 5 markers. On each marker was a different symbol…a flame, a bolt of lightning, a snowflake, skull and another I cant recall maybe a star.
The person who hilariously failed the first challenge kept trying to push the markers with their bare hands, and each time I said “nothing happened”, so she tried a different one, tried pushing it harder, tried pushing 2 at a time, tried hitting it with her weapon, which I asked if it was magical and she said so, then kept trying the same thing over and over again. She kept talking over everyone and I even think she said “this puzzle is stupid”. I was seconds from scream “look at the symbols” when someone took a swing at it with their radiant sword that things started clicking into place in their heads. The dumb one then tried using a level 2 fire spell and I think let out an audible groan.
In advance I made sure all players had cantrips of these particular damage types while building this puzzle and she wants to use a level 2 spell. For reference she’s an OP druid (because she cheats on all her rolls), has a higher AC than our barbarian and more HP than our paladin, yet considers herself “squishy” and stays in the back peaking out behind cover to shoot with a crossbow, and takes it as a personal attack that everyone hates her if any enemy does damage to her.
Sooooo whos dick was she sucking to be allowed to keep playing
🎼 Counting all the numbers of the alphabet!
