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.

Since I finished that campaign nearly 10 years ago, haven't really touched the Cypher System since then and have sold off most of my Numenera books (and the rest are on the other side of the atlantic), I'm afraid I have to decline that. So I'll just be happy with my relatively fond memories of...

Hm ... I suspect you're missing a lot about how the system might work at a gaming table, were typically, a lot more is in play than the simple calculus of how to spend least pool points to defeat an enemy. There can be special attacks that you NEED to avoid, there can be special attack effects...

Well, I played a one-year long Numenera campaign to tier 6, and I liked the campaign, but that wasn't so much for the rules, and I still voted "It's pretty bad", mostly because I dislike the constant necessity for the players to think about spends, the character creation that seems to give you...

I think you can hardly compare a fight ran in a computer game to a fight ran at a table with a GM ... I have no idea if Torment uses the exact same system, but even if it does, it says relatively little about how it runs at a gaming table. Anyway, I don't want to convince you to like it, and I...

I wouldn't equate feeling exhausted with feeling bad, and even less with meaninglessness/boredom. More like: If you have achieved something, of course you'll be exhausted. And sometimes, the greater the cost, the more meaningful the victory will feel. (Since I'm a little bit miffed by the...

I wouldn't call them a flaw, since I think they pretty much work as designed and intended - yes, you'll only spend points on defense if you want to avoid a specific effect or if something causes a sh**load of damage, but that's fine, I think. What I like is that all attrition has a visible...
