ANTILURKER77'S PROFILE

For what its worth, I'd like to throw my opinion into the mix. First of all, I do not want to argue Libby's announcement, the decisions of the site admins are more or less final, all I wish though is that some of these things would be discussed in a more public matter before being decided upon.

Some arguments, specifically JosephSeraph's and Sidewinder's, are compelling arguments against a carpet ban of all AI-generated stuff. I am not a fan of AI generated images/assets, but there are non-unethical uses of said tools.

I also echo Sgt M's sentiment that AI shouldn't be used as a solution, but as a tool. While it is very depressing to think that people would replace the passion and love that goes into making anything by using AI, some other just augment their passion and fun with these AI tools.

I am not going to argue the ban of AI-generated assets, but I would've wished for the decision to be discussed a little more publicly before being decided, so that all the arguments that have come up now and retroactive clarifications could've been talked about before a ruling is made.

I was gonna write a big effort post, but I saw this and it echos my thoughts as well.

This announcement comes of as short-sighted and too broad (for reasons OldPat mentioned) as well as antagonistic. Was there really a flood of low-effort AI content flooding the site? The new policy is only going to drive the handful of people away that were using it sparingly and subtly. How exactly is the site being improved here?

And this isn't even getting into the whole morality of AI tools. It was brushed off as "AI bad" but it's much deeper than that. I feel like a lot of the complaints against AI are stemming from this being uncharted territory for technological advancements and people not knowing how to react, so they dismiss it as "unethical" rather than actually examining what AI does and what it's current and potential capabilities are.

The gaming world was rocked today when a group of hackers revealed that the popular RPG Maker game series was actually vulnerable to security breaches. According to the hackers, the game's developers had failed to adequately protect the game's code, allowing them to easily decrypt the game's content. What's more, the hackers revealed that the game was actually using ripped assets from other popular games, including popular titles such as Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. The news has sent shock waves throughout the gaming community, with many players now questioning the security of the RPG Maker series. Developers are now racing to patch the security flaws, but some gamers are already calling for a boycott of the series until the security issues are addressed.

IT'S OVER.

You got an AI to write this, didn't you?

After using MZ for awhile I could never go back to any other RM engine.

I still love awful haikus
