I'd honestly be interested to see some good AI RPG art - because for now, I'm mainly looking at stuff thinking, "well, that looks like another ugly AI pic", not even knowing whether it's true or not. For example, if you would present this cover to me...

You might be Dieselpunk AI.

Well, if you unpack it, they said: "We used copyrighted material, but we are convinced that that doesn't violate copyright." So whether they admitted that they're violating copyright law or not depends on whether you consider what they did a violation of copyright. Them claiming that whatever...

Even (and especially) if a lot of people don't care, that's a good reason to find ways to regulate potentially un-ethical production methods. The less people care whether clothes are produced in sweatshops, the more we need legislation to outlaw such extreme forms of exploitation. (I'm not...

The difference is that the artist is a human being - they can choose to refuse your request or fulfill it, they can and have to take responsibility for their actions and, as human beings, have moral and legal rights applicable to their work.

Yes, exactly. A human is a person, and as such, we usually consider them to be an end in themselves. They have a moral and legal right to self-expression. We consider their expression as something they originate, even if they wouldn't have been able to create without many kinds of input. They...

Wait ... are you telling me that's why my external mouse just won't work? There's a difference?

Sorry, but to me that sounds like you're saying: "I'd like to put the burden of proof on the other side because it suits my argument better to do so." You wrote: So you're saying that caliming that AI art processing is fundamentally different from human art processing is "as much a claim as...

This is a weird position to take. The claim that would have to be proven is naturally that AI art processing is bascially the same as human art processing; because the idea that would be basically the same is based on the most flimsy evidence of a somewhat similar output. It's like saying: "A...

I don't quit get who the "original artist" would be in this context. If I'm plagiarising someones work using a brush and then make money of it, that might very well be a copyright violation. If I'm using a typwriter to reproduce The Lord of the Rings and then sell copies, that's certainly a...

That's probably a sticking point. As long as you consider AI a tool (as I would do), I'd say the acting party are the people using the AI as a tool (or selling it's use to others) - so they are using other artist's creating for commercial ends without permission or recompensation, which sounds...

I've followed this discussion (which is actually pretty informative, thank you everyone!) because I'm really not that knowledgeable about AI art, but very interested in getting an idea of how it works and what it implies ethically. My takeaway at this point, from a purely moral standpoint, is...

I hope support of this bundle means that enworld is pro-peace, pro-medical aid. Making it about being pro-Palestine (or pro-Israel) just plays in the hands of the extremists on both sides who want their opponents, well ... just gone. Sadly, that's what most of the "solidarity" seems to be about...

I'm not sure if "You can't do that anymore". While I'm not backing 13th Age 2nd (just not my kind of system), I'm usually more happy if people aren't trying to sell something to me with super-excited youtube videos every five minutes. Pelgrane Press are usually doing their thing, occassionally...

I remember how excited I was about that first Prometheus trailer .... that one looked so good. On the other hand, I can't remember being excited about the trailer for Alien vs. Predator: Requiem ... that one probably really was just as stupid as the movie.

I mean, even the director didn't like Alien3, and to be honest, for me it's on par with Alien (Alien is certainly the better horror movie, but the bleak atmosphere of Alien3 is just so impressive that it makes up for any missteps made).

I'm looking forward to this one, but Alien3 will always be the best. (Yes, I said it and I stand by it. A few years ago, I introduced my wife to the trilogy. The first one was great; then I noticed how I was getting vaguely embarassed halfway through Aliens, and after that I barely could...

I only know this the other way round: "Wait, that RPG was new, like, yesterday - and the thread on it is five years old?"

Backed it and looking forward to it!

Now, pineapple on pizza I can live with. Sausage, however - that is a greater abomination than Alia Atreides.
