It is called “Acting” for a reason. Let us see if ChatGPT is able to come up with physical actions. The system surprises again: it links the right actions to the conversation. Speaking of spice the character grabs the nutmeg. Wow!
I used the following prompt:
Write a conversation between Hans and Gretchen while they cook together. Put in brackets what each person does while speaking.
Hans: (chops vegetables) What dish are we making again?
Gretchen: (stirs the soup) It's a traditional German stew recipe passed down from my grandma.
Hans: (adds meat to the pot) Sounds delicious. What are the ingredients?
Gretchen: (smiles) Potatoes, carrots, onions, and some beef broth.
Hans: (checks the recipe on his phone) Oh, I see. We also need some spices like paprika and bay leaves.
Gretchen: (nods) Yes, and don't forget the secret ingredient – a pinch of nutmeg!
Hans: (grabs the nutmeg from the spice rack) Got it. So how long should we simmer this for?
Gretchen: (tastes the soup) About an hour should do it. Just enough time for us to make some fresh bread rolls to go with it.
Hans: (rolls out the dough) Bread rolls? Do you have a recipe for those too?
Gretchen: (laughs) Of course! My other grandma's recipe for fluffy rolls is foolproof.
Hans: (cuts the dough into circles) I'm glad you're teaching me all these family recipes. They're so tasty and comforting.
Gretchen: (smiles warmly) That's what cooking is all about – sharing love and memories through food. And who knows? Maybe one day we'll pass these recipes down to our own grandchildren.
Hans: (smirks playfully) Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We still have to master this stew first!
