Explain how you think a multi-billion dollar company is not going to leverage AI after they directly said they would.I don’t know, I think you are kind of just assuming things.

Well yeah, but my point was that that choice was very much intentional so they can act like they're respecting artists while still using AI to replace the artists no one considers to be artists.While writing is an art, in this context art means images; art in this context, conversely, is also not writing.
Really, it's two different uses of the word 'art'--its usage as an umbrella term for all of human creativity, and it's usage as a term referring to the creation of images. In this case, they are using the second meaning.
AI is a term that encompasses a lot of different technologies and functions.Explain how you think a multi-billion dollar company is not going to leverage AI after they directly said they would.
Thanks for the link.
It boils down to them saying they're consistent in their policies -- "don't do it, artists" -- but both WotC staff and artists make mistakes.
Not addressed is the recent corporate announcement that they'll be training AI on the D&D back catalog for use in creation of future products.
(Also, for the "no one outside ENWorld cares about WotC controversies" crowd, do check the Facebook comments for this announcement. Lots of people are mad about the DDB a la carte options going away.)
Honestly, I'd love if they just started by releasing the spreadsheet that I dearly hope they're using in-house for monster design. It seems likely that many people would disagree with some of their assumptions, but it'd be nice to have it all laid out in Google Sheets form.But we will see AI DM assistants . . . they already exist, just not from WotC . . . we might see AI tools that can help us design monsters, classes, feats, etc.
Hasbro only expressed Interest at most, and are not WotC, who don’t seem to be interested and even shut down AI DMs as an idea.Explain how you think a multi-billion dollar company is not going to leverage AI after they directly said they would.
They already did make mistakes. IMO, that was probably referencing the Bigby’s AI artAnyone else think it's suspicious that they posted an FAQ saying "we might make mistakes" right before the PHB previews start?
If they caught their artists using AI, even with the policy against it, it's probably too late to fix it.

Heaven forbid that they acknowledge that they aren't perfect an may miss something. I don't see the point of looking for something to be offended by when they've taken a strong stance against AI art in their books. I think most companies that pay for artwork are struggling with this, it can be incredibly difficult to detect.Anyone else think it's suspicious that they posted an FAQ saying "we might make mistakes" right before the PHB previews start?
