    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    This would be like the CEO of Apple using a samsung phone as their main phone, and when asked "oh I still use my iphone for my email checking all the time....I just the samsung for the majority of my apps". Daggerheart was promoted to be a more narrative focused type of dnd like RPG that would...

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    I actually think at this point its less true Hubris and more the issue of competition. Its the same problem with weapons. Once one nation has a certain class of weapon that can beat another, that second country HAS to get their hands on it. If they don't, they are saying that Nation A could take...

    Imagine a world where everyone has weapons as you say. And you don't have any guns or anything....but your the Flash (aka the comicbook super hero). Who would win? The trick with AI is the speed. By the time you have even concieved the thought of doing something, an advanced AI could already...

    Level Up (A5E) Let's make Dangerous Strikes good on a Fighter

    I mean....would it? At the end of the day crit range is not actually all that great to increase your damage, and your giving up all of the other various stances you could have active instead. That's a big oppurtunity cost. It would certainly be good, but OP.....eh I doubt it.

    So just finishing up a little project where I had an AI generate a python script to create dozens of iterations of a boardgame map I am considering, as well as perform a regression analysis of all of the cards in the game to see if there are any power outliers. And...it did pretty darn well...

    Even us mid level managers can be accused of that. When your focused on something its just easier to ask a question than go check on something yourself. The Q&A takes 10 secs, going yourself could take 5-10 minutes. Man probably makes like 100 million a minute...so that is some valuable time!

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    hehe I mean they could be. But the OP just asked the question "is AI a problem"? And so showing the good and bad AI is bad necessary to answer that question. I have zero issues with showcasing both positive and negative articles about it. Aka this does not appear to be a (-) thread from the...

    Cool transition episode as we move to the next stage of the show. I think the "Not Wendy vs Wendy" makes sense, kids (and adults) are often vying for their superiors favor. We have the kids acting in various emotional ways, one of them wanted to prove she's "the best" is perfectly normal. So it...

    The answer is no...its likely not essential. But is that question even relevant here? Not every single element of a character has to become super relevant down the road to justify its existance. It is ok to just have things happen to people because...that's what happens to people. If Ortegas...

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    One of the most interesting shifts in the AI movement is while we are advancing forward....in a weird way we are having to go more old school as well. Because this new technology is different than our typical computer systems. We tend to consider computer based results to be "practically...

    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 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...
