I've used it for random generation and that's about it. Before each session I'll generate a list of random people and stores. I've also used it to come up with lists of random items.
It's basically just an all-in-one random generator for me.
It does seem to do pretty well in that regard. Can I ask if your game is a conventional d&d campaign or something else?
I use it in 2 campaigns. 1 is traditional D&D in a homebrew setting, and the other is future science fiction. It does very well for the sci-fi one because there's no preconceptions of setting.
Ah, that makes sense. On one hand I'd think Sci-Fi would be tricky for chatgpt as it's nowhere near as homogenous as fantasy, but on the other hand (as you say) it's kind of anything goes all the same, so that's cool to hear it works out well in the end
