I've recently been playing around with this app called Poe which lets you chat with different AI bots like ChatGPT or Claude. They just released a feature which lets you create your own bots by providing a prompt, so I decided to make a puzzle out of it. Unfortunately, you do need to create an account to chat with the bot in order to do the puzzle. If that's against the rules here, please let me know and I'll try to come up with an alternative puzzle.

EDIT: The signup flow does ask for a phone number, but you can skip it and make an account without it (that's what I did).

Note that it is an AI so it has a tendency to get confused, or even say the wrong thing sometimes. Here's a test game I tried out with the bot (using a different word of course). Amusingly, it revealed the answer before I actually guessed it. If you encounter interesting results like this, please share them (but maybe in the actual giveaway instead of here so other people can play the game without hints).

Bot 1
Bot 2

Put the answer here
Also here

EDIT:
Added a new bot Bot 3. This one is a bit different from the others, and hopefully it's more fun.

I think you can sign up with email only. Not sure why they even ask for the phone number

sometimes the bot ends up confusing itself into thinking it's using a different word. If you push back and tell it that the word is wrong, it sometimes will just tell you the answer lol. (If that's not the case, feel free to share the convo with me in a previous giveaway or on Steam so I can figure out what's going on)

Same, sadly. Tried to push back on it and it just got upset with me and started a new round with a different word.

If you click the broom button in the bottom left corner, it will "clear the context" so the bot forgets everything about the previous conversation. The word you're trying to guess stays constant though so it's not like you're starting from scratch again

Thanks! Was able to avoid where I assumed the confusion was and get it right a second go. Put my comments in the Cult of the Lamb giveaway. Was fun! Thanks for making it

Imagine just how different life would be if you could do that with human beings

The bot 1 is not very smart. I won't ruin it by posting some of the things it did. Hahah!
Basically gave me the runaround, then told me the answer.

Given that there are so many hilariously wrong answers the bots are giving out, I'm wondering if anyone managed to solve it the "right" way lol

This bot seems to be particularly dumb lol. The answer should just be a single word. I would clear the context of the conversation and try again

Bot 2's answer was a six word, very ambiguous concept. Is this by design?

Both answers should be a single word. If it's not, the bot must've gotten confused

I can't get past the signup process, I used the email option, it sent me a verification code, but when I enter it I keep getting an error:

Something went wrong. Please wait a moment and try again.

EDIT: nvm, I managed to sign up

If I remember correctly, you said something to another user that seemed disrespectful to me in some other thread. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and removed you for now.
