[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8866084, member: 6801845"] I've skipped most of this, but people [I]really[/I] overestimate AI. AI is not really thinking about what it's creating, it's recognizing patterns in established dataset and recreating them. AIs can do amazing things. If looking for a solution to a problem that can be boiled down to a clear dataset they can use competing evolutionary analysis by randomizing possible solutions and deciding which one is best. It's how they "learned" chess, they set up two AIs to play chess against each other and, given the rules of the game and the win conditions, they ran a few bazillion matches. But an AI doesn't "think" in the way that we do. The pictures they generate don't mean anything to them, if I ask for a picture of a goblin it's just going to look at it's dataset of goblin images and recombine them. It doesn't know what a goblin is and it's not being creative in the way we think of it, it's organizing random bits and pieces of art that humans originally created. Things like making a picture of a goblin? Relatively easy to make a generic image. Maybe with enough sample dataset they could create modules, much like they can now write essays. More likely they could assist an author with inspiration and revising the writing for clarity. An AI DM that can completely replace a human? Not sure when, or if, we'll ever see it. It sincerely doubt it will be within the next decade, if ever. [/QUOTE]
