[QUOTE="OB1, post: 9651911, member: 6796241"] A lot of good food for thought. I would say that this forum's very existence is predicated on number 6. D&D wouldn't exist if it hadn't relied on the copyrighted material that informs it's core :) Again, I'm not just trying to be a devils advocate, troll, or ignorant here. I'm looking to better understand the issue. Note that I hold a core belief that pirating media is theft, and I do not consume media that I don't pay for. But I don't see that as what is happening with AI. I understand and feel for people trying to protect their jobs (as someone who worked in entertainment for 25 years and is now changing careers to healthcare post losing my last job and not being able to find work in my old field) but that, to me, is not a good enough reason to not push forward with new technology.
