AI Policy
The Policy of SextantofWorlds.net on AI is that unfortunately, AI does has not yet met the standards of fair use in a clear enough statement from its creators to be used on this wiki. The current court suit we are tracking, Andersen vs. Stability AI, has been filed against Stability AI, Midjourney, and Deviant Art. The case has been approved for discovery, and is set for trial in September, 2026[1].
A Personal Note
I love AI, and think it is a really powerful tool. Shadowrun, in fact, was a deep inspiration for me in pursuing a career in emerging technologies. Generatie AI technologies like Stable Diffusion are awesome and can create some really amazing imagery, but the proverbial well it draws its creations from seems like its been tainted[2]. Similarly, Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT have been targeted with similar concerns about its training database, and whether its output violates derivative work as defined in US copyright law[3].
Until there is further clarity on the legality of AI outputs and transparent/equitable use of material for training sets, the pages you'll find here are authored and posted by little old me.
