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

    Not really in the same way or to the same extent. Just like the conversation I had regarding mistakes, the mistakes AI make are very different than the shortcomings of an actual artist.

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

    I mean, in concept you could do it. It'd be ethically better but I feel like I'd be kind of ambivalent on it? But at the least, it would be a "do no harm" sort of scenario. But you'd need a large dataset to do that.

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

    I mean, it's better than just making it up wholesale, but better doesn't mean "good". The problem is Step 2: to "enhance", the AI needs a dataset to go off of. Unless Ilya has a rather extensive database of art that he has created that works within the style, he's probably getting it from...

    It's called Monday Morning Quarterbacking, and the rest of your post is a non sequitur.

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

    That was my point. D&D not having a policy while Magic does suggests neglect at best and possible encouragement at worst.

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

    Yeah, this is why so much of the hype around AI destroying the world or taking over information/knowledge jobs is incredibly premature: without those people, they don't have a dataset to farm and suddenly you have the "trash in, trash out" problem. It still can't parse problems in a meaningful...

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

    I'm quite aware of how quick it's going. Trust me, I'm following it fairly closely. But at the same time, with great strides come setbacks, too. We were mocking AI for its problems with hands (and teeth, which was another big tell), but as it has gotten better at that it still has problems, even...

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

    I think they're saying that you can get if you include the artist as part of a prompt, even if its a subject they've never touched, by including it in the prompt may end up including the signature despite it not directly taking it from something. To give an example, if I asked for "Star Trek...

    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...
