Show HN: simtown.ai – US Election Simulation with AI Characters
Inspired by the Generative Agents paper [0], we've created a browser-based simulation of the upcoming U.S. election with GPT-driven versions of Kamala and Trump, along with nine diverse NPCs representing voters in Pennsylvania.
These AI characters freely roam, interact with each other, and engage with real players. Currently, we have a single global instance where everyone can interact together. Single game-day is 24mins in real life.
What can you do?
- Listen to speeches by the candidates
- Chat with NPCs and other players
- Persuade others to vote for your candidate
- Eavesdrop on conversations between other players by moving closer to them
- Explore the environment
- Observe the final vote tally once everyone make their mind
We appreciate any feedback or suggestions!
