    D&D 5E (2014) Glory of the Giants' AI-Enhanced Art

    Those are different kinds of mistakes and not really comparable. Yes, at a certain level detail can fall apart, but they don't do so in the same ways. For example, look at the railing for the stairs in the piperoom: it's not straight, but closer to a tangle of strings. People can shorthand...

    D&D 5E (2014) Glory of the Giants' AI-Enhanced Art

    Yeah, but if you take a real look at those rather than just the thumbnail, you can see that so much of the fine linework is just jumbled. Look at the railings, the tire spokes on the car, the driver's side chair (or whatever the hell that thing poking up in there is), the feet of the people, the...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I mean largely circumstantial, but I've been pretty open that this is my personal feels. Though I feel also it's just as valid as everyone trying to claim this was an innocent mistake. I mean, we know that the D&D side of things did not previously have the same sort of aversion to AI art that...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    If I'm being honest, I've found that it's not the number of rules that inspire roleplaying as much as how much players get get out of the rules. I didn't get more RP out of my group with 5E, which has considerably fewer rules tacked on to its skill system. In fact, I created a set of "skill...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    I think that when people see rules, they think they are meant to be unbreakable when they aren't. Certainly in combat things are meant to be hard, but when you try to define things for movement like "Move" and "Leap", you can get situations that feel kludgy when things don't line up: for...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    Maybe you bought into the feat. :P Wait, which one is that? Create a Diversion is actually a really open one that doesn't actually have a limit on how many people you can actually distract. Are you talking about Fascinating them? That's a bit different (and arguably more powerful). I think...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    These are all coercion, and the whole "takes a minute" is wholly negotiable within the rules themselves. What it allows is that you can always do it in 6 seconds, or you can always hit multiple people instead of one. I've always found this sort of thing pretty okay, and gives me an idea of how...

    D&D 5E (2014) Glory of the Giants' AI-Enhanced Art

    Yes, a Photoshop tool doesn't need to scrap art to do this sort of thing, though it generally can't do the same sort of complexities that AI generation is attempting. Using the tool would require the user's skill to actually do things properly, while AI generation relies on the art it scraps to...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I mean, alternatively they are the big dog in the arena and their actions have outsized effects elsewhere, especially after the whole OGL thing. After that they've continued to make mistakes, but now their pockets are empty of the goodwill that they had to spend because people just don't put the...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    No, not entirely. Did you read the whole thread, because there was one artist's whose concept work was used as part of an AI drawing, and that's not the same as "enhanced". Further, I'm not sure we can say "enhanced" because we don't know where the information from Ilya's AI "enhancement" was...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    There are other pieces that were noticed that have yet to be mentioned. This one, for example, is so obvious that it feels unconscionable that someone could see this and say "Yeah, that should be in a major AAA RPG production." Seriously, look at the person in the corner and try to figure out...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I mean, that's kind of implicitly included in there, but that's also not the real concern of AI art as much as what I describe. Again, I think the fact that Ilya did some AI stuff on his own art isn't bad as much as it makes the pieces honestly worse. But the bigger issues with AI are largely...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    This misses a lot of the actual issues raised by AI art, like the fact that it can't exist without scraping other people's accounts for art to imitate and basically plagiarize. It's not creating something out of nothing, it's basically copying someone else's style using their works and giving...

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    I have seen it and it's not too far off. They honestly look more like hands than proper paws, but the blobbiness of it all makes it difficult anyways. The back paws honestly might look even worse, and they also resemble closed hands a bit.

    WotC WotC: 'Artists Must Refrain From Using AI Art Generation'

    Maybe, but I think that there's a sort of "uncanny valley" with AI stuff that people get set off by. It fudges details in such a way, especially fine details, that you can feel like something is a bit off. There were people commenting on it specifically, but I always feel like AI drawings like...

    D&D 5E (2014) Glory of the Giants' AI-Enhanced Art

    I mean, those would have to be actual facts and they very much aren't, especially if you've been following the discourse around this even at a cursory level. It's so weird that people want to find ways of making this some sort of benign mistake when Wizards pointedly did not take a stance on AI...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    At a certain level it could kind of work if you wanted a very simplified game, but you'd need to also greatly simplify the spell list, too. Fighters will hit hard and accurately, Barbs will hit even harder but also get hit more, Paladins will still get their reactions, Rogues will get their...

    We can't say for sure. She may assume it is him, since he is the one who has been identified, but let's not take it as a confirmation. Not yet, at least.

    D&D 5E (2014) Glory of the Giants' AI-Enhanced Art

    I mean, sometimes. Again, clothing is a big tell with AI art because it doesn't really handle it well and it just sort of blends it all together. You can really see it with the Frostmourn, where the sketch has much firmer shapes and lines in the clothing while the AI version is just sort of...
