Would you buy an AI-generated Castle Greyhawk "by" Gary Gygax?" Should you?

[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 9234607, member: 11760"] Going along with what [USER=7035894]@Clint_L[/USER] said, I write professionally. (That may not always be clear in my typo-ridden posts here.) I could not tell you what a gerund is, beyond knowing it's one part of speech playing the role of another part, or many other grammatical rules, as my despairing AP English teacher could attest. But on the job, I write famously clean copy because I read a great deal and write a great deal. In other words, the machine in my skull was trained the same way as generative AI is. Now, I don't write trying to guess what the next word in a sentence is most likely to be, based on other writing on the same subject, as generative AI does. But my grammar and vocabulary are largely the product of having read widely and having my writing challenged by adversarial AI -- my editors, some of whom have been [I]extremely[/I] adversarial over the years -- rejecting my work, forcing me to improve my work so as to pass the next challenge. (This is the same system that's been used to make deep fakes get so good: One AI produces an image, the second one tries to detect if it's a fake, and the first one keeps refining until it can fake out the second AI.) The route may be somewhat different -- I have intention that current AI models don't -- but at the end of the day, I think it's reaching a number of the same landmarks nonetheless. And I think it's worth remembering that it's only been a year since most of us have had the ability to access AI as members of the public and it's made huge strides in that time alone. Statements declaring that AI "can never" or "will never" do something are pretty bold. We don't have to be excited about it -- I am confident AI is going to eliminate a lot of jobs in my industry, maybe even mine -- but counting it out is denialism, IMO. [/QUOTE]
