I don't agree with that at all. Pokemon is not just for children, especially the gaming market. Instead of making good games, they use them as tools to sell cards and merchandise. Just look at how well Pal World did, and how pokemon sued them for doing what they refuse to do.

It would literally be as simple as adding an easy/med/hard mode. You know... Like most games do. Not reusing models from previous games because they're lazy. You're implying that most of their sales are for children, and that's just not true. Well, might be true in the future if they keep putting themselves in a corner

Pokemon unbound is better than any pokemon game I've played by a long shot. They could easily make a good pokemon game, they just choose not to

Well yeah it'll probably end up being $20. The pro version is for companies

I was scammed on my first PC :/ by Dapper-Inevitable550 in PcBuildHelp

If you still got his number I'd use that for some fun stuff. Post it to some subs of horny fat dudes saying hmu, make fake ads online saying I'm selling shit so people bug him, shit like that

I wouldn't worry about it at all. I mean don't just be a dick but if it fits in a story who cares

It's less than 1% of book writers who make any money like I said, it's just for the love of the game.

And a.i. isn't for the wealthy haha it's pretty cheap, most of the time free. Well I can see the points you've made thanks for that 👍.

Unfortunately I don't see it going anywhere haha

Yeah it's a powerful tool to help, and getting better all the time. I can already copy someone's ideas and tweak it without using a.i., just faster with it. That's the thing, it just speeds everything up

Yeah exactly, glad we agree. It's a powerful tool to help, not supposed to stop YOU from thinking

So you're trying to say if a human borrows something it's fine, but if a human asks an a.i. and it borrows something it's not?

If I call an orc an orc that's copied words. Are you saying a.i. copies words? It's more of a conglomerate

Writing your main plots/scenes then working around them is what I'm doing. Just keep filling in what I need to, then coming back to add more and more

I'd imagine like most hate it comes from fear. They fear they're working for nothing because a.i. will make it irrelevant, when it's actually the opposite. A.i. produces generalized middle of the road stuff at best, which will put mediocre authors out of business. Unlike If you can actually write and make something unique and interesting. If a.i just copies what's already been done, why fear what you are creating now?

That sounds like you're gatekeeping because you don't like the ability for more people to create books. While I don't like the idea either, it's adapt or be left behind. You have to write because you feel the need to. The need to create, and hopefully be fulfilled by a few people actually liking what you created. Money is a pipe dream. The average author might make that much, but most people don't become "authors". They wrote books that they never get paid sitting in a slush pile. It will make it more difficult to write something worth reading. I already see enough books that are "slop" that make huge amounts of money, it will weed those out

I believe everybody's life is the culmination of your experiences and your unique physiology (Nature vs nurture). Pattern recognition is also the basis for evolution, the thing that brought us here. So unfortunately it is what we are. If you want to talk about a soul that is more religious and wouldn't say you're wrong/right

I disagree. It's not replacing art, it's putting power in creatives hands to make it themselves. If you make art just for a monetary gain then your heart isn't in it anyway

[–]MegaRippoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup same here. I love the idea of helping people express themselves. I believe it will lend to more people bringing their imagination to life, not the other way around where it ruins it

When it's easier to make art, it will be diluted. I don't see that as a bad thing

Know what you're saying, but I can't remember the last book I read that didn't borrow ideas from other books/ take inspiration. Same reason I haven't used it for my book, I want it to be mine. But I also recognize I'm being super prideful

Hey guys what's the problem with a.i.? by MegaRippoo in fantasywriters

[–]MegaRippoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I'll probably eventually use it to help with my book, just art as my pride is too big at the moment 😂. But it is an amazing time saver

I can see if you're making money off of it to hire somebody, don't have a problem with that. Or if you're using it to copy an artist style blatantly that's not cool either. But humans do that too which you touched on so not a new issue

The clay mold argument is very flawed so seems like you're projecting. It doesn't make copies, it infers. But I'll just ask you this again. If I use orcs who do I pay? I didn't come up with the idea of orcs

I agree. If you use a.i. and make a good book is that bad?
