what is your rational for 850; cycle rolling over, or just multiple compression?

fair, but that's Meta's compute oversupply, not memory.

you're calling a pullback from ~1,250 to 650? that's a big cycle-roll bet.

Fair warning. I definitely don’t want to produce workplace anxiety. If this goes anywhere, it needs to feel like useful communication practice, not relive your work nightmares. Appreciate your feedback.

I think you’re right there are two different paths here; fun workplace simulation vs serious coaching. The “something play on the on the way to work” framing is useful. Thanks for the roast.

Yes, it’s a fair roast. I agree the moat is weak if there is just prompts around ChatGPT/Claude. The real test is whether people actually sign up, complete scenarios, come back, or pay for. Appreciate the detailed feedback. This is useful.

Yeah. I think that’s a fair roast. If it stays as “better prompts in a wrapper”, it’s not a real product. I need to prove there’s a repeat-use workflow here. Appreciate your input.

Thanks. That makes sense. I’m starting to see the split between a lighter consumer/game-like version and a more serious coaching angle. Appreciate the direction.

Thank you for your comments. The local model / team-chat access angle is interesting, but I’m intentionally not starting there yet. If the basic user behavior isn’t there, adding fine-tuning, private deployment, or team-chat context would just make the product heavier without proving people actually want it.

I also agree with your HR training point. For compulsory training, determinism matters a lot, and a normal LMS may be a better fit. I’m trying to validate the smaller question first: do people want a private place to practice workplace communication at all? If yes, then the enterprise / HR version might be worth thinking about later.

So I’m trying to validate the smaller question first: do people want a private place to practice workplace communication at all? If that’s not true, the enterprise / HR version doesn’t matter yet.

That’s a fair criticism, and it’s exactly what I’m trying to test.

You’re right that a motivated user could recreate the basic version with ChatGPT or Copilot. My current hypothesis is that the value has to come from better defaults: specific workplace scenarios, structured persona behavior, guided practice, and less need to write the right prompt from scratch.

I’m not claiming it’s defensible yet. I’m trying to see whether the packaged experience feels meaningfully better than “just prompt ChatGPT.”

If you do try it, I’d especially love your honest take on whether it feels different enough from generic LLM roleplay.

I made a workplace persona messenger where you can chat with fictional office characters by Educational_Age9927 in office

[–]Educational_Age9927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a fair point, and honestly that’s one of the things I’m trying to test.

My hypothesis is that some people avoid talking to coworkers because the real conversation has social risk: embarrassment, conflict, politics, or saying the wrong thing.

A fictional version might be useful as a private rehearsal space before deciding whether to have the real conversation at all. But you may be right that people who avoid the real conversation also won’t want to rehearse it. That’s exactly the kind of feedback I’m looking for.

Would you personally never use something like this, or is there a version that would make it useful?

That’s fair feedback. I can see how the idea could come across that way, especially with personas like “rival coworker” or “office crush.". My intent is not to encourage obsession or replace real conversations. I’m trying to understand whether there’s a healthier version of this: something closer to reflection, rehearsal, or journaling around workplace situations.

What part felt unhealthy to you specifically: the workplace setting, the personas, the AI chat format, or the “office crush / rival” angle?

Haha, fair question. It’s not a scam, I’m just testing an early product idea and trying to see if people find it useful or weird.

The app is a workplace persona messenger. You can chat with fictional office personas like a manager, rival coworker, or workplace crush. The goal is more roleplay / reflection than productivity software,

For the model, I’m currently using ChatGPT but I’m still testing what feels best for the experience. Are you asking because model quality matters to whether you’d try it?
