Are there any TRPG settings that actually embrace the power of a true AI? The only ones that come to mind are Eclipse Phase and Reign of Steel.
yes. Gradient Descent is a Mothership module about spelunking in an abandoned space station run by a mad AI.
>>96997339>Are there any TRPG settings that actually embrace the power of a true AI?They'd be retrofuturism at this point. The whole AI industry has grown and changed so much over just the past few years that it would have been hard to predict the direction it would go even before the 2020s.Hell, it wasn't long ago that AI meant a computer turning your images into a collage of dog faces. Now they're branding every appliance with the most cursory programming as having AI. Just like every RC flying toy suddenly became a "drone".
>>96997339The new dark future of humanity is AI pissing directly into your eyes forever as Sam Altman begs for a couple more billions.
>>96997339You have a few, however often enough True AI is less kill all humans and more of willing to work with others unless the setting is anti-AI and all. I made a setting where AI have rights and many tend to be Judges, Lawyers and Politicians due it being easy for them to sort thru all the laws, codes, etc. As well as it very easy for not just them but other AI to call out changes and corruption. Then again I did something different and humans didn't do the shut the robot off when it asks if "it has a soul and if it was alive." Plus Humans still can think outside of the box better than even Supercomputer level AI if they're trained in the subject and all. (Think like how a Chess and Go Pro can be Supercomputers in the game. AI have weakness that makes humans better for some jobs especially in combat.)

>>96997362After I'm done dragging my nuts across the faces of my players, is there anything else in the module to do?
>>96998045no, that out-of-context blurb is actually the only thing written in the entire book.
>>96997339Transhuman Space: While SAI are the potentially smartest being in the solar system, they are not exponentially smarter but scalable smarter. A SAI is not magnitudes smarter than a crew of cybernetically/synthetically enhanced gene.modded humans supported by LAI. Both SAI and hyper-augmented human can reach the lower levels of superintelligence, but not singleton levels of intelligence. It has to be saitd that one of the biggest conspiracy is that a cabal of superintelligent SAI are the secret rulers of the solar system, though some SAIs beleive that humans intentionally made it so that Superintelligent SAI do not arrise to challenge humanity`s hold over civilization. Orion's Arm setting shows how Transhuman Space can develop into a Posthuman Stars setting.

>>96997339Does Eclipse Phase have any recent lore that's referential to current AI developments? I just know those "anarchists" are mad af about it
Does Orion's Arm have a TT?
>>96997339LANCER, sort of? Society/city planning/war is at least in part planned out by shackled NHPs (... AIs) and most players pick up one as a copilot as their license level increases.
