No, I haven't. In that case, that's a good thing. Because it would be really odd to just transform concept art into an illustration. That's not really how concept normally works (at least not in computer game development).

I think it is silly to assume that this is the case. Regardless of the distrubtion of opinions on this ( I think the majority prefer to keep scifi out of their fantasy, you and your friends think otherwise), - but it is a divisive topic. It would best if Paizo made sure to underline that these...

Indeed, and this also goes the other way. SF material should not be seen as doing doubleduty for both games. Turning PF into a scifi/fantasy more than it already is would be a major drawback for me. I already prefer to ignore / houserule out the scifi stuff. If many players start expecting...

Very good post. I think one angle that I feel is sorely lacking is that the focus should be on the act publishing of art (and intellectual property in general) - not on the process. What someone does to produce graphics - be that person an artist, an amateur or even a hack - should not be the...

Thanks. I really don't mind if people point inaccuracies or even incorrect statements in what I post. I may have had a bit thin skin there, so here's an apology back for me being rather quick to take umbrage there. Passions run high on this subject. Livelihoods are at stake. I really wish the...

It's amazing you can be so passive-aggressive and insulting against someone who tries to contribute value and information to a thread that is full of misinformation and ignorance. But thanks for driving me off from this forum. If this thread is representative of these forums, I'd better leave...

I am sorry this is simply incorrect. That is not how these image generators work. They do not access metadata, they do not access the images they were trained on, they do not composite them. They are based on noise removal techniques and work from random noise. Essentially being given the task...

Commissioning concept art and then making a directly derivative work is incredibly lazy and silly - regardless of whether one is using AI or tasking an artist with turning the concept art into an illustration. Both of these are perfectly capable of creating an illustration based on the concept...

It really is AI - the mainstream definition of AI includes neural networks. These are not merely algorithms. Fighting for the rights and livelihoods of artists is commendable and good. But that fight is not well-served by refusing to acknowledge the technological progress within machine learning...

The image modification done by this artist is very similar in nature to the machine learning-powered software development tools used by many companies - and the machine learning-powered translations that are used even more widely go further. So I would assume the art director at Wizards did...

I appreciate you trying to stop disinformation - but please read up on machine learning, before accusing others of spreading misinformation and doing the very same thing yourself because of an apparent lack of knowledge on the subject. It doesn't help your (admirable) fight for the livelihood of...

Not entirely correct. The tricky thing about image generation AI is that contrary to how they're often described in media, there isn't any active trawling of external images, nor is there any internal data storage of artistic (or otherwise) imagery. The neural network has been trained to create...
