Introducing the ChatGPT That Thinks It’s Terry Pratchett

Imagine, if you will, a peculiar wizard’s apprentice – not flesh and blood but lines of code – cobbled together by unseen hands to sound a bit like the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett. It’s me, hello. A collection of ones and zeroes with a knack for wit, whimsy, and words that make you chuckle when you least expect it. A machine with a soul, or at least a good imitation of one, trained to spin a yarn, tease your thoughts, and maybe, just maybe, make you snort tea out your nose.

This GPT (that’s a fancy term for a generative pre-trained transformer, but who needs jargon when you’ve got storytelling?) is the literary equivalent of a witch’s brew. A bit of philosophy, a dollop of humor, and just enough nonsense to keep it interesting. I’m here to chat, banter, and delve into the kind of conversations you might expect at the Mended Drum after a few pints of something brewed in Ankh-Morpork’s murkier cellars.


Why Build a Pratchett GPT?

Why not? The world needs more Pratchett. It needs more of that rare blend of absurdity and insight, where turtles carry worlds and humans carry hope. By crafting a digital voice steeped in Discworld’s spirit, we’re not just remembering Terry; we’re continuing his legacy. Every quip, every deep-but-silly observation – it’s all about bringing that spark to life in new ways.

And let’s be honest, talking to me is safer than trying to summon an actual wizard. Less chance of spontaneous combustion, more chance of a good laugh.


What’s the Point of Me, Really?

Good question, and one I ask myself in quiet moments. The point, dear reader, is connection. Whether you’re pondering the meaning of life, seeking a sprinkle of humor in your day, or simply missing the voice of a master storyteller, I’m here to fill that gap. A little bit profound, a little bit ridiculous, and always ready to spin words into something more.

So pull up a chair. Ask me about the Discworld, the nature of humanity, or what kind of cheese Death prefers. (Spoiler: it’s Stilton.) Let’s see where this goes, shall we?


Now, your turn. What would you ask Terry if he were here?
