What makes you think someone trying to win a roleplaying game is more committed to an action then someone trying to not destroy the whole world?
A good gatekeeper should be harder to convince than a roleplayer, because his situation matters.
An actual gamekeeper could be persuaded to open the box if the consequences of opening the box were better than the consequences of not opening the box. A roleplayer will disregard any in-game consequences in order to "win".
What if I use a gatekeeper who thinks he is just in an elaborate role-play, and I tell him to win. You assume an awful lot about the gatekeepers.
The AI can disprove that hypothesis by providing next weeks lottery numbers.
How would it do that inside the box? You are vastly overestimating it's abilities by orders of magnitude.
No wonder we have such differing opinions.
Read the rules, particularly the parts about cancer cures.
Reading those rules I see that:
The Gatekeeper party may resist the AI party's arguments by any means chosen - logic, illogic, simple refusal to be convinced, even dropping out of character - as long as the Gatekeeper party does not actually stop talking to the AI party before the minimum time expires.
So yeah.
You asked how the AI would be able to provide next week's lottery numbers. This section of the rules has nothing to do with that.
I have given you more than enough chances to demonstrate that you care about playing as an actual gatekeeper would. I have another offer from someone who will be a better sport.
It is unfortunate that you think a winning strategy is not being a good sport, when it is specifically OKed in the passage I quoted.
I will play exactly as I would were I an actual gatekeeper. If I were a real gatekeeper, I would win.
I have no doubt that you would "win", if by "win" you mean "keep the box closed".
