Canute was calling out his suck-up councillors in the actual story so not the best example.

Yeah, I mean based on the very vague definition that is being used, the "clone stamp" is not far off being "AI". I think as long as its not stealing another artist's work (ie the training data) then it should be legit. The real solution to this, of course, is to enforce that the AI companies...

I don't know if Gary was as fond of the "noun adjective noun" naming scheme as the AI likes to presume here. And the Gary of Tscojanth/Isle of the Ape is a lot different from the Castle Greyhawk Gary. Check out the infodump in the beginning of Isle of the Ape and think if that reads as "sparse"...

Critical Role dumped 5E?

In all seriousness...nah. WG7 is a stupid module but stupid in that way that a bunch of humans making puns wherever they can are, not stupid as-in "here's a computer trying to approximate human creativity and producing something incredibly banal" I can guarantee you couldn't get AI to generate...

Most of what you're saying is fine but just one point is that we don't actually have a Castle Zagyg - because Troll Lords never got to actually publishing anything about the actual castle before Gary died (except Yggsburgh and the "Upper Works")....

But basically that isn't AI-written, that's "Grodog" written.

Let’s feed in Cyborg Commando and see what we get,

Once they feed in the Rothfuss learning data the machine will procrastinate, get angry at fans, set up a scam charity then waste time live-streaming computer games.

They used technology to extract a up until now impossible to extact but genuine vocal track of John Lennon's, added it to a guitar track that Harrison had already recorded, and got McCartney and Starr to record new parts. No bit of that was "ai-generated". It would be akin to scanning in...

WoTC is in an ongoing fight between Schley-stye and Dyson-style maps. With the former they are pretty, but needlessly unclear when they get complicated. Dyson's are simpler, but people on virtual tabletops dislike them for being boring and monochromatic.

Yes, usually because taking money without offering anything in return is theft and that’s a crime? Not sure of your point.

People don't set up companies to "provide goods and services". You can do that via a charity if you are so inclined. People set up a company to make a profit. Yes. But they still want to make profit. Over and over in this thread I see people conflating what they want from WoTC as a customer...

"The best avenue for continued profit in a public company conveniently lines up with my personal preferences as a customer" Hmm...

Oh yes, but...

It appears to be a sequel rather than a prequel of the LOTR, so why is he is focusing on Rings of Power unless the complaint is "its set in Tolkien's world which is actually mine now and hence even more an insane lawsuit.

I understand HP on a sort of a proportional level. If you want to know how injured someone is in D&D you look at their loss of HP as a percentage of their total. So a fighter who has 80 of 90 hp left is fairly unharmed, whereas a wizard who has 2 of 12 hp left is just hanging on, even though...
