Episode description

Join Pat and Andrew as they talk to Anne the Gnome, an all out DM and D&D enthusiast who uses AI art to help tell the stories and design the characters used in her games. Anne is known by her audience on TikTok for using prompts she either makes up for herself or gets from her community and imputing them into the Discord AI art software called MidJourney, to get these illustrations.  In this episode, she shares the benefits and realistic expectations people can have when they use AI art software to create and share their own ideas. She also weighs in with the guys on topics like, what impact AI art will have on the value of creators and their work, and how the D&D community feels about using AI art software….she also knows a lot about mushrooms.
