The OP was kind enough to share this story and give us a glimpse into the project and window of time and I think we should be supportive of that.
In regards to Autodesk - I'm not sure a corporation would even send a letter these days, let alone one written in the positive spirit this one is.
Finally, the OP and Gibson met and buried the hatchet so to speak.
This is super helpful for visual learners and for starting to onboard one's mind into a new domain.
Excited to see where you take this.
Might be interesting to have options for converting Wikipedia pages or topic searches down the line.
Another perspective where this exact feature would be useful is in security review.
For example - there are many static security analyzers that look for patterns, and they're useful when you break a clearly predefined rule that is well known.
However, there are situations that static tools miss, but a highlight tool like this could help bring a reviewer's eyes to a high risk "area". I.e. scrutinize this code more because it deals with user input information and there is the chance of SQL injection here, etc.
I think that would be very useful as well.
I think most reviewers do this to some degree by looking at points of interest. It'd be cool if this could look at your prior reviews and try to learn your style.
Is this the correct commit to look at? https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/commit/661ea617d7b1fd392...
Question: What happens to our data - i.e. the code and context sent to your service?
A few takeaways:
1. An LLM based DM can give the player essentially infinite richness and description on anything they ask for.
2. There is difficulty in setting the rules for the LLM to follow that match the DnD rulebook. But this is possible to solve for. Also, I found the LLM to be too pliable as a DM. I kept getting my way, or getting my hand held through scenarios. Maybe this is a feature?
3. My conversation quickly began to approach the context window for the LLM and some RAG engineering is very necessary to keep the LLM informed about the key parts of your history.
4. Most importantly, I found that I most enjoy the human connection that I get through DnD and an LLM with a voice doesn't really satisfy that.
There's definitely a certain mindset that helps make it more enjoyable. Imagination being key! From the technical side, the developers have peeled back the curtain on how they've created parts of the game:

Does Unreal have something similar?
(I'd love to get your feedback!)
