At what point will we believe AI is a legitimate threat?

I can’t tell if we’re trolling at this point with the mixing up of Shopify and Spotify

This is literally AI slop, I’m surprised this hasn’t been mentioned

I appreciate the good faith effort here to learn (and advise on) programming skills! It’s rare nowadays.

Just wait until I tell you about your local newspaper’s Sunday crossword.

I built this game for fun. There are no ads, and I currently cover the LLM costs myself.

I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile toward the idea of a daily puzzle game. Wouldn’t it make more sense, ideologically, to direct your criticism at pay-to-win games designed to keep you playing for hours a day? This is a simple daily puzzle — a two-minute break that never asks for more of your time. How is that even remotely comparable?

But to answer your question - yes the string must contain only valid english letters and must be between 2-25 characters in length. If you can jailbreak the system with those constraints I salute you!

Others have tried and failed to jailbreak it. Give it a shot if you're keen and post results here.

It's on my list for sure. Thanks for the message!

Thank you! The solution is when user_word === ai_word, so there isn't technically an "answer." The only pre-determined word in the game is the first word the AI chooses, which is the same word for all players, each day.

This is called turn detection, and there are some great tools coming out to solve this recently. (One user mentioned Livekit’s turn detection model). I think in a years time we will see dramatic improvement.

God tier filtering. Do you mind sharing how you integrated AI into the filter system? Your "flagging peanut butter" example also makes me wonder if the LLM is tagging the product with a large number of attributes on each run so it's not prohibitively expensive.
