- HWR_14 4y agoWOTC pretty much announced that AI-DMing was on their roadmap shortly before ChatGPT launched. I'm not sure if they knew about the developments of LLMs or were planning on other techniques. They are salivating at MMO style recurring revenue.
- vkou 4y agoWhy would they hate this? They'll sell access to it, just like anyone else who is eager to take LLMs that consume content from the public domain, and repackage it into a walled-garden-entry-by-fee, giving nothing back to the public.
- obiefernandez 4y agoWhy do I need to buy it from them if I can just do it myself directly on OpenAI? (Or are you implying that OpenAI will censor it?)
- dragonwriter 4y agoMaybee is implying that as WotC moves forward, they are likely to stop producing physical books and only provide new content in the form of D&D-as-a-service.
- vkou 4y agoOnce they collaborate with 'Open'AI to build a product out for this niche, it's incredibly unlikely that OpenAI will continue to provide this service to you.
- rcarr 4y agoYeah, but if a kid trains an LLM up on all the DND pdfs floating around the internet and then releases it into the wild for free, what can they do about it? Will they even be able to prove it was trained on their copyrighted material and not generic fantasy or another TTRPG?

- squeaky-clean 4y agoAs an AI language model I cannot help you violate intellectual property laws, you can visit wizards.com/ai and become a gold-tier subscriber to play interactive Dungeons and Dragons with an AI dungeon master. Or maybe we can play a different game.
