🎧 How to Make a Video Game With ChatGPT in 60 Minutes

Source: original

TL;DR: Today we’re releasing a new episode of our podcast How Do You Use ChatGPT?I go in depth with Logan Kilpatrick, OpenAI’s first developer relations and advocacy hire. As we talk, we build our own text-based strategy game together in 60 minutes using ChatGPT and GPT Builder. Watch on X or YouTube , or listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts . You can make a video game without writing a single line of code. Logan Kilpatrick and I did it together live on my show.

Logan is OpenAI’s first developer relations and advocacy hire. A big part of Logan’s job is supporting the community of builders using ChatGPT, DALL-E, and the OpenAI API. He’s also deeply invested in growing this community, convinced that AI tools empower people to build more.

To prove this point, Logan and I fulfill a childhood dream of ours, to build a video game, live on the show. We use GPT Builder and ChatGPT to create Allocator, a text-based strategy game where players step into the shoes of a historical U.S. president and are tasked with managing the government’s budget. We have an awesome time iterating all the way from rough idea to functional video game in less than one hour—without any coding. It’s an incredible experiment in how AI can bring our creative ideas to life.

Three months ago, OpenAI released the application that made our video game experiment possible: GPT Builder. This tool enables people to make custom GPTs tailored for pretty much anything they want. Logan believes that GPT Builder is the biggest technological unlock since ChatGPT was released. It reduces the barriers to innovation and building, especially for people who don’t know how to code.
