Some Indie publishers I know also think the proliferation of AI content has tanked the Kickstarter marketplace. I’m not sure, but I know my last KS (human-made) got about half the number of backers that i was expecting

I haven’t seen any strong evidence it’s mostly ChatGPT output now - though if someone is using AI art, you can be forgiven for thinking they probably used AI for the text. The downfall of the Guild started before AI was a thing. There’s a good video on the topic for interested readers: I’m...

In theory, it is only the art and not the words that is AI generated. Regardless, very few titles with AI art seem to sell very well. The Guild itself is a shadow of its former self

AI generated text is not permitted on either DMs Guild or DTRPG. But that is not really possible to police. The Guild has always been full of slop, whether human or AI produced. But AI means it can be generated at industrial scale. AI art is permitted on the platform, however, and there seems...

The DMs Guild never had a good signal to noise ratio - it was always full of a lot of very amateurish material. Some of my early products were dreadful! That was the nature of the platform, and a strength of it, really. It allowed a generation of designers to learn their craft, get some...

“A good place to start” is how I’d describe it. I think it’s notable that all the recent D&D hires have at least a few DMs Guild credits

Yep - I didn't describe that either. Gemini just put that little detail in.

Gemini is getting pretty good at doing comic book pages. I had an idea for a satirical comic called "Xanathar, Inc" about a dystopian Waterdeep run by Xanathar. A few minutes work conjured up the below image. I imagine we will see a lot of fan-made content of this type soonish...

Greg Bilsland is Executive Producer, so I assume Justice probably reports to him. Justice is running the design team. Greg's duties (according to his linkedin profile) are: • Define and drive the comprehensive content strategy for the entire D&D portfolio, aligning analog and digital offerings...

Justice is an old friend, so I am biased. But I think he is a genuinely good human being, very talented at game design, and also a skilled manager. It seems like a good choice to me.

This is excellent news - well done, Justice!

Due to widespread displacement of all labour by AI and robots?

I asked Gemini to suggest (in writing) four concepts for a cover for the latest Eberron book. I selected one of the concepts and asked it to render the image. Here is the first iteration it returned, with no adjustments by me: Is it Game Over?

I always took it that she is a professional writer or artist.

I would have agreed 100% with you up until about two weeks ago. I think Nano Banana Pro is a generational leap forward in that regard - see the image that I posted and DistractedDM re-posted, along with the prompt. The prompt is detailed and the resulting image looks good to my eye. That's one...

Certainly - please share

"I don't know much about art, but I know what I like" is the most authentic statement about art criticism ever made. If you prefer the AI-gen music to most of the human-gen music, then that's what you like. Some of my creative colleagues like to claim they've never seen anything of artistic...
