Quote by Gary Gygax
When AI approximates Machine Intelligence, then many online and computer-run RPGs will move towards actual RPG activity. Nonetheless, that will not replace the experience of 'being there,' any more than seeing a theatrical motion picture can replace the stage play.
Summary
This quote emphasizes that although advancements in AI may enhance online and computer-based RPGs, it cannot completely replicate the immersive experience of participating in a real RPG activity. Similar to how watching a movie cannot fully replace the live experience of a stage play, AI-driven RPGs will still lack the same authenticity and presence as engaging in an actual RPG. Thus, the quote highlights the significance of the tangible and interactive elements that make the real-life experience irreplaceable.
