I find that descriptions of characters are often very cliche(stoic man has big muscles), and in some cases negative stereotypes are an issue(stoic man is an alcoholic). it’s always good to keep in mind the potential unintended subtext the AI has created. My rule of thumb is to use it for generic npcs for my DND campaign and then to probe it for cliches I should be aware of when I’m developing the main cast.
Questions like “in media, what are some ways a stoic man is described? Are there any clear trends for them?” Gives back the typical cliches that, depending on the character, I may use or intentionally avoid.
But if I just need to describe farmers 1-12 then I’ll ask it for physical descriptions of 12 different farmers, tweak things I don’t like and call it a day.
