The original books missed the idea of initial motivation on the "adventurer" career path. Why and how did even these first level characters end up this way. That makes the rules and settings awkward and necessitates the world to c

There have been quite a number of attempts at computing in memory kinds of chip design through computing architectures. So far with very limited success. It's not impossible but in search of good applications.

AI and AI tools is a very divisive question in all creative fields. Yes. In the short term, I don't see much alternative but to split each such challenge or prize in two. Which also is not much of a problem.
