Episode 7: Creating an RPG Assistant with AI

Creating an AI assistant for any RPG which runs locally using Ollama and OpenWebUI. Also, Tony visits, and I tell some RPG stories from "back in the day".

Clarifications and corrections:

- The AI knows that my name is Matt because I created a user profile (not shown) telling it so.

- When Llama 3.2 claimed Gary Gygax's true name to be Gabor Gygax, I think it was hallucinating. I can find no corroboration for this assertion. Still, I did ask it to be a wizard, and didn't give it a first name, so it might have just been being creative.

- I stated that there is a separate OpenAI-o1 reasoning. This is incorrect. The DeepSeek-r1 page is accurate.
