I use Stable Diffusion to make character portraits and scenes for my D&D game that I run in Foundry. Better than trying to scrounge Google images!

I've been browsing Mastodon daily now. I'm finding the experience reminiscent of my first few months on Twitter, where it is was a challenging to cultivate a list of people to follow in the very beginning. I think federation adds an additional hurdle, but it is still coming together slowly but surely.

This 100%. When I was reading threads on Reddit, I was looking for a few good comments that were among hundreds of chaff. It seems that here most of that other stuff is gone. Sure, there are comments numbering in double digits and less, but so far they've been more thought provoking or at length (or at least more clever!)

I was a big fan of Boost. I will be checking this out!

 

With the increase of accessibility of AI for both text and art, the implications on the RPG world have been greatly apparent. I have an ongoing 5e game that I run on a Foundry server, but this can also apply to the other variety of TTRPG games out there as well.

I've used Stable Diffusion to create character and scene art and it's allowed me to output high quality visuals for my players. When I'm having a hard time getting out the words I want to say, I've pulled up ChatGPT to help me convey the ideas. I've also used ChatGPT to fill out random encounter tables, come up with names, and fill out towns for flavoring. There's still a lot of work involved and I only keep about 5% of anything that's generated, but I feel like this is a tool that has helped me become a better DM rather than outright replace me entirely.
