Hi! I've been looking for campaigns all over the place, but I've yet to find one where either maps, npc's, story or actual character art isn't ai. I really can't stand this, d&d is supposed to be a creative game full of wonder, yet people can't be asked to actually use their own creativity or commission actual real artists for their art needs. Personally, I would draw character and npc art for free for anyone in the campaign or the dm. Maps are another thing, there are so many free maps out there made by actual people. And most importantly, if you need ai to write your story or character backstory, you shouldn't be playing d&d. I'm so sick of people pretending and saying that ai has a place in creative spaces, because it doesn't. Art and stories have been made and told for centuries without any ai, but now it seems people can't be creative or are just lazy and have ai write and create for them (ai doesn't create, it steals and badly puts stolen photos together). I'm sick and tired of this, you are ruining the game and creativity, please stop using ai.
I don't think you can really control the players in a campaign, it's their decision to use things like that. If you're talking about a campaign, I'm sure that WoTC doesn't usually use AI.
You're totally right about AI not having a place in creative spaces though.
I agree but as mentioned by another we cannot control what players use for their art. Nonetheless I feel this. I've been looking for an artist to do the art on my homebrew.
I had one who did a great draft then disappeared completely. I have one person now but I am not hot on their work. They are going to shed it and come back. Other than them I have only received AI generated crap and lots of it. I think I've had like 40 submissions of those 40 there are three different AI art generators used. I can tell because they give me the same five or six examples with maybe one new one in there each time.
Before I got a real job so I could maintain a Visa when I am abroad I played music and owned a PR label for composing jingles. I had a few contracts but Aria came out and it was $800 annually to produce as many 30 sec tunes you wanted. I was $800 + royalty. I lost those contracts as did others in the industry. I still played professionally like a decade after. I just had to pivot my business to doing more live music and less composing. It wasn't until I lost my musician visa while on tour I decided to get into something that is skilled and on every shortage list in the world. I thought it would enable me but it became a trap. Now I have a retirement and decent benefits but I don't play as much. It isn't so much the lack of work or time. I was a session guy just play the tune or hand me the sheet and I'll slide in. I just have other problems now.
