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.

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."

[-] pawsplay@dice.camp 18 points 3 days ago

@zaph @Stamets It should be "a bank." People make bank inquiries. Traditionally they have scales to measure precious materials. They of course guard treasure and precious things.

What kind of scaley books does your DM have?

Books have.... Scales? What?

AI sucks at creativity

The ghost of a scholarly dragon. No flame because dead but still being inscrutable with people

@zaph @Stamets ai just doesn't do those relations that well. It knows how riddles are supposed to look like, but I doubt it can do the mental leap between questions and answers

[-] BluesF@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

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.
