To use the Flowery Key, you need to head to Fraygo's Flophouse, a bunkhouse and hostel on Wyrm's Crossing. However, before leaving the Open Hand Temple, make sure to investigate the crime scene a bit more closely.

The Strange Flower Key will unlock the wardrobe in the attic, revealing a hidden room.
Make sure to include Astarion in your party when visiting Fraygo's Flophouse. If he's present, the party can interact with some vampire spawn to get additional context for Astarion's companion quest to defeat the vampire lord Cazador.

A small research group recently examined the performance of 25 AI 'people', using two large language models created by OpenAI, in an online Turing test. None of the AI bots ultimately passed the test, but all the GPT 3.5 ones were so bad that a chatbot from the mid-1960s was nearly twice as successful as passing off as a human. Mostly because real people didn't believe it was really AI.

Baldur's Gate 3 patch 5 was jam-packed with big gameplay features like a punishing new difficulty tier, a D&D-inspired custom mode, an expanded epilogue for the core characters, and a long-awaited inventory fix. One thing the mammoth patch notes didn't mention was enhanced penis physics, but the RPG's tirelessly horny community spotted this change almost instantly and wasted no time putting these physically simulated bits through their paces.
Baldur's Gate 3's next major patch is on its way—scheduled to release this week, according to Larian Studios' director of publishing, Michael Douse. Announced in a Twitter post yesterday, Douse reassures players: «we caught the nasty bug causing slowdowns and the good news is: it’s fixed in Patch 5!»

That's right, the game's latest technical crisis is in fact a crisis of conscience. Oh the humanity!
