OMG now I really wanna see one those famous DND groups trying to play a couple of sessions with some AI as the DM. Could be very entertaining in some very different ways.

As soon as they figure out how to exploit AI’s tendency to just agree to everything, the AI DM is cooked. But then it can also hallucinate stats and abilities that don’t exist. So I guess it’ll probably just turn into Whose Line: D&D Edition.

Like that D&D skit guy I can’t find.
“The lich casts cloud lightning as a legendary action.”
“Can they do that?”
“This one can.”
Totally forgot that guy’s channel name. Always love the barbarian chucking an entire bag of dice and barely glancing down. “I do eighty-four damage.”

So, like how I run regular D&D?
Just kidding, the players have to follow the rules.

I’m so spun out on political garbage I thought that lemmy headline said that Marjorie Taylor Green and Dungeon and Dragons won’t use AI anytime soon. /me facepalm

They’ve already cashed in by becoming Fortnite on cardboard.
Magic’s backstory was always fuzzy background flavor more than necessary worldbuilding, but it had a clear identity. Every card was an evocative glimpse of high fantasy where some magical creations require scale birds. Aaand now you’d have to play that against Spongebob Squarepants and Bilbo Baggins.
