Dear sweet Oghma. We can’t even get rid of it on TTRPGs.
Ever since I started studying AI back in 2015, this has been my #1 interest and end goal for AI.
I don’t think LLMs are quite good enough for what I want yet, but in a few years I think we may be there.
I really don’t understand why anyone would be complaining about this. No one is going to force you to use it. You can still run your own campaigns, this will just be an amazing tool to make it more accessible to new players, and take a lot of the work off of a DM that doesn’t have the time or want to put in the effort.
Imagine being able to select a setting and a ruleset, and having an AI generate an entire campaign for you along with music, location art, character art, etc, then be able to handle the rules for you, track your stats and equipment, etc and maybe even generate art for cool moments when you roll a crit.
It’s currently a great tool for a DM. I always end up being the DM for my groups and I’ve really enjoyed using LLMs and Art generators as tools, but if I could have a competent AI DM run the game for us so I could play, I would be SO happy.
This is amazing, and the negative response just seems like elitist, gatekeepy, crotchety bitter old man syndrome.
Exactly. I’ve been using AI (mainly ChatGPT and Midjourney) for my current campaign and it’s great. While I make up most of the campaign myself, ChatGPT is like a supercharged contextually aware DM app. “Come up with a monster that would fit x situation”, “make up a riddle for the players”, “what do the rules say about x?” and so on. It’s like having another person to discuss the creative choices with, but that person is an expert that knows every rule, monster, place and so on.
My group doesn’t strictly follow the rules anyway, but this is still dumb. To me the whole point of playing DnD is to have real human interaction!
The inclusion of AI doesn’t lead to the lack of human interaction.
We’re using plenty of random generators and software to provide content since years…
Sure, I’ll still be sitting with my friends and we can ignore the ML crap.
I could be wrong, but this just reeks of Hasbro trying to cash in on the “AI” hype. With this and the recent licensing thing I’m hoping to switch to a different system anyway.
The nice thing with DnD though is you can play in your own way. If you like all the ML stuff, go for it and enjoy it! :)
Nothing about this will limit your human interaction.
Living in the golden age of AI kinda sucks. At first it was interesting to have these new tools to play around with, but then people start using it on things that definitely shouldn’t use AI
Less of a golden age, more of a golden shower age.
Fuck hasbro for what they’ve done to WOTC
Oh for God’s sake.
Why do posters keep writing &Amp instead of just &?
EDIT: seems it wont render ampersand correctly at all… so the below is just has everything escaped when I didn’t mean it to be and more confusing than it should be because of this… not sure how to get ampersand to display correctly in a code block, seems to be bugged.
&
is the HTML escape code forampersand. As&
ampersand is a special character in HTML which means entity reference and should you can use the escaped form to get the browser to render just&
&
rather than treating it as a reference. The same goes for other characters likeless than or<
etc. However a lot of browsers still treat
ampersand as a literal in places where it does not look like a reference so the literal still works in a lot of places. But the escaped form always works.&
But when you copy html from a page your browser is probably copying the escaped form the page used in its source rather then the rendered form. It does this to let you get rich markup when pasting into documents - the app you paste into understands the html and knows when you are using heading or bolding text etc.
But in this case the app just pasted in the escaped form with no conversation. And for security reasons likely escaped it again as you don’t want users to be able to post any old html formatting in a comment, so any html special characters in the input get escaped leaving you with a double escaped char, which the browser only unescapes one layer of when rendering.
Heh, well, look at that… seems it is also escaping chars inside backticks, but then not undoing that on the render when it conveys them to a pre tag… Which IMO seems like a bug in lemmy.
Let’s test some things: &
\&
&
I typed: It previous as I would expect:
But renders it escaped on the mobile app at least, disappointing…
It did it without my wanting it to. It won’t let me edit it either.
In the 1980’s DC’s Legion of Superheroes (set in the future) basically played D&D around a computer and presumably with AI. So this time, the Simpsons didn’t predict it first.
Next up, people flip out because their baulder gate enemies make actions without another person’s input!
Not only am I ok with it, I loon forward to it. I’ve only had the chance to play the starter box and a bit of curse of strahd. Both games I was the DM, and the group was my wife, step kid(teenager) and my sister in law.
I don’t have the time to get with a normal group of non-existent friends. I’ve tried and tried to use most of the llms to DM even short adventures for just my self, and it quickly falls apart.
So if they can find tune one for ttrpgs it would be a divine intervention XD
