We’ve always been against generative AI and now we have an official statement, posted prominently on our About page.
Shewstone Publishing objects to the use of generative AI technology in TTRPG products. Generative AI is not permitted in any content associated with our brand: not products, not advertising and marketing material, not social media or blog posts. Generative AI is not used in any part of the creative process, except automated note-taking in creative meetings.
I slightly resent that the burden is on us to make and repeat this statement. A beer manufacturer doesn’t have to make a public statement that they don’t use rat urine in their beer. That goes without saying. But here we are.
