"In Mihir Maroju's your ai slop bores me, you're connected with thousands of other users looking for art, answers and inspiration. Before you can ask anything of others, you must "larp as AI." Delivering written or drawn answers to pressing questions and prompts with only 60 seconds on the clock. Each answer, well-advised or otherwise, earns you a token, which you can then spend on requests to other players."
"Need music recommendations? Wondering if that leftover chili is still safe to consume? Send these curiosities into the void, it's about as productive as hitting up a language learning model trained off Reddit posts. Now you get to be in the driver's seat, displacing AI and offering hastily rendered, haphazardly delivered advice. With that added human touch, of course."
"Whether it's the cute human connection or a matter of pride, your ai slop bores me has become a weekend phenomenon (the server for it seems to be a little crunched as well, if the "larp" tab fails to connect try switching between it and the "human" one)."
A new browser game created by Mihir Maroju flips the script on AI's role in society by having players take on the role of AI systems. Users must answer prompts and questions within 60 seconds to earn tokens, which they can then spend to request answers from other players. The game has become a weekend phenomenon, attracting thousands of users seeking art, answers, and inspiration through human-provided responses. Rather than relying on sophisticated language models, players receive hastily delivered advice with a distinctly human touch. The game mirrors how actual AI services function while offering a playful commentary on AI's growing presence in everyday life and corporate job displacement concerns.
