There are already bots that use something like 5 specialist bots and have them sort of vote on the response to generate a single, better output.

The excessive prompting is a necessity to override the strong bias towards certain kinds of results. I wrote a dungeon master AI for Discord (currently private and in development with no immediate plans to change that) and we use prompts very much like this one because OpenAI really doesn't want to describe the actions of evil characters, nor does it want to describe violence.

It's prohibitively expensive to create a custom AI, but these prompts can be written and refined by a single person over a few hours.

Are you talking about MoE? Can you link me to more about this? I know about networks that do this approach for picking the next token, but I'm not aware of any real chatbot that actually runs multiple LLMs and then votes on the outcome or anything. I'm interested to know more if that's really what it is.

I didn't have any links at hand so I googled and found this academic paper. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.20151.pdf

Here's a video summarizing that paper by the authors if that's more digestible for you: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OU2L7MEqNK0

I don't know who is doing it or if it's even on any publicly available systems, so I can't speak to that or easily find that information.
