20 September 2024 ~
David Thompson joins Brant for a wide-ranging discussion around the uses of AI for creative purposes in tabletop gaming, whether for art or text. Note that the “AI” we’re talking about this week is for the creation of the game content, and not as a ‘bot’ or automata in place of an opponent.
Under what conditions might AI usage be OK? Assuming it’s legal, is it automatically ethical? As a consumer, what sort of usage are you comfortable with? What disclosures do you want regarding the usages of “creative” AI in tabletop gaming? What’s black and white and how big are the gray areas in between?
Some of the headlines we mention in this episode
- This Kurosawa Movie Inspired George Lucas’ Original ‘Star Wars’ Script
- Terraforming Mars and AI artwork
- Scythe art and “tracing”
The Chasing Amy reference1 with language that is sooooo NSFW
