Granted what most people have quoted when they talk about this is the revolution in protein shape analysis currently happening right now.... but while that is using a form of "AI" its not the standard LLM types that people are currently working with. But there are the various AI doctors that are...

Because a suspension is a way to communicate to the viewer that Ortegas "seriously messed up". She was suspended, which goes on her record. Whether 1 week or 3 months, the scene itself communicates that Una isn't letting this one slide. Now I still believe this will come up again later in the...

And of course the third group....that actually believe AI will notably change the world, and possibly for much worse.

And also I think there is a degree of separation from "super optimistic" to "AI is god". Is the idea that AI will eliminate all disease far fetched....it is. But the idea that AI could spawn a new wave of medical discovery that could radically eliminate many diseases we deal with....absolutely...

My thoughts exactly. Its a terrible idea, but seems perfectly in character for the Boy Kavalier we have been shown so far.

Well that was literally the point as Pike was telling Kirk. When your in the commander seat and you look at the captain, you often think I could do better. But the real difference is, the buck stops with the Captain, they have to live with the decision. Sure killing 7000 to save millions was...

I'll fall back to my notes a few posts ago. I do think this position is a fine one. You have a special BBEG experience, and you made some custom rulings to ensure a good experience. That I have no issue with. My concern is for the people that think there is no ruling needed here, that dispel...

Its basically the blockchain concept. You need enough copies of the OG programing set in various locations. Every so often, they all have to communicate their entire code base. Any inconsistencies have to be checked across the network, and if 51% of the network agrees it should be X....all...

Makes sense, I would have loved that noted in teh show. Of course we can argue why the heck a ship wouldn't have protections against its own tentacles to ensure a mistake didn't fry the ship....but hey ST is sometimes cavalier with its engineering. I admit the tricky balance, normally I respect...

Very true....but of course, the rules also don't state that dispel evil and good requires a save or an attack roll. And so....the spell doesn't require that unless the DM says so.

I actually think the biggest weakness of this season is that there is so little technobabble....in fact most of the plans barely get a few seconds of explanation. Its "I have a plan!" followed by "the plan worked!". From La'an magically getting them off the Gorn ship with a little consel work...

And a ghost's possession ability for example literally sites the dispel good and evil spell as a way to remove it, it too has this embedded on its rules context. My issue here is, if people want to houserule some spells because they don't quite fit their aesthetic of what they want the game to...

Domination is also a much stronger form of control than a charm person spell is. So would you not allow dispel evil and good to remove domination because it "only " removed the charmed condition?

So in this case the body is dominated by a person who clearly doesn't want the domination removed. How is that different from a spirit who doesn't want to leave the possessing body? The way the spell works to me is..... Possession and Domination are conditions that are applied to a creature...

Yes, and I feel like with this season the OG members of Critical Role are trying to answer the OP's very question. How much can they change and it still draw in their CR audience? (and of course...grow it!) Have they built something that requires their constant participation....or have they...

Lets extend this to another aspect of Dispel Evil and Good. Ok I am dominated by an undead lich. You use break enchantment on me to remove the charmed condition (aka the dominate). Do you require a save or an attack roll for that effect?

I'm in the same boat with A24. They are the studio that continues to impress me with their innovation; they are the ones pushing Hollywood right now. Not everyone movie they make is a winner, but they have a lot of them, and they are movies that linger with me, as opposed to the disposal fare I...

Life on earth is WEIRD, like weeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiird. There are so many insane creatures on just our planet. Quick Example, the Tongue-Eating Louse. Its a creature that literally eats a fish's tongue....and becomes the tongue. And the fish just lives on with a new foreign tongue. That is just on...

this was my thought as well. I think Wendy has had a good bit longer in the synth body than any of the others.

I am curious if the fact that so much of what we have seen in media so far is "media from 100+ years ago"....if that is just a quirk of these people or does that speak to a cultural stagnation? aka stuff nowadays is crap and so people prefer the shows of the ancient times? Or...maybe even the...
