  • I’m addicted to urban fantasy right now so I definitely wish we could get another swing at The Secret World. I love hidden world things like a second society of cryptids beneath the mundane and I’ve been inlove with the setting for forever.

    I know the devs were talking about a tv series but… nothing.

    I’ve also always wanted to do a band of brothers style series but from a star wars’ perspective where half the series is in the eyes of rebels and the other half in the eyes of the empire. But to slowly build up more gray morality - like the rebel soldiers have to struggle with committing acts that cause civilian casualties to push their objective. Or the stormtroopers slowly being broken from the imperial cult but still loyal to the concept of what it means for order.

    Or like… a band of brothers style series of a platoon of imperial guardsman in 40k. Just guys struggling to survive demons, aliens, and killer robots.


  • I’m taking the bait.

    The art he prompted was drawn from and trained by art that wasn’t his. The art was created by unsuspecting artists and then was blundered together like a frog until it created the image. He may have edited the image later on with a 3rd party program. But that’s still altering art built from an amalgamation of others art.

    And this isn’t the same as line tracing or referencing other’s art because that still requires the user to put pen to paper and wholly create something by hand. Or hand to digital modeling software. Something that actually takes hours of work and concentration. Not coming back to your PC to change the wording in your prompt and then walk away for an hour or whatever while it blends stuff together for you.

    If the original creator of the art work should get the copyright then the thousands of artists who drew the original training material should get those copyrights.

    This is the same problem with AI in other fields. It’s drawn from the work of humans.

    Moreover, I don’t want to remove the human element from art ever.








  • Copy/pasting my response from elsewhere here, sorry.

    Sorry, I should have said recovery scam, I guess. They come up and ask if you can help them get access to their google account because they got locked out and [insert excuse why they cant get the code]. They ask you to put in your email so a recovery code for their account goes to you and would you please give them the code so they can get into their account. But its actually your account.

    I’m actually not 100% sure how this works, but it’s like the Steam access code scam.

    Since most people use the same email for everything, they can gain access to services through password resets after they lock you out of your own account.
