AI (Artificial Intelligence) refers to advanced algorithms and machine learning models designed to generate content, assist in game design, and enhance user experiences. Utilizing technologies like natural language processing and image generation, AI helps create dynamic, engaging, and unique RPG (Role-Playing Game) elements based on the SRD 5.1 rules.

Additionally, AI is used to create visual content that matches the game’s thematic elements. The platform utilizes AI to provide a personalized gaming experience for each user.

The content generated by AI on Game Squires is generally unique to each prompt and set of parameters provided by the user. While the AI draws from a vast dataset to produce content, the combination of user inputs and AI creativity ensures that each piece of content, whether text or image, is distinct.

Yes, you can. Content you create can be used by you in any way you choose. You cannot, however, use content you did not create, such as that created by Game Squires or other users. Content covered by the SRD 5.1 has it’s own rules which can be found here.

AI features on Game Squires are accessible to any user with the appropriate number of tokens through the content creation and editing tools. Users that have a Player Plus or Game Master account will receive a monthly allotment of Game Squires tokens, while free users are given a limited number of tokens on signup.

Users have the option to customize AI-generated content to some extent, such as setting a tone, adding to prompts, choosing story directions, or specifying character traits. This allows players to influence the type of content AI produces, tailoring the content to their preferences.

Square images (1024 px x 1024 px) use 4 tokens. Wide images (1792 px x 1024 px) use 8 tokens.

To explain token usage for text, it’s important to understand the two ways we refer to tokens: AI Tokens (used by the system) and Game Squires Tokens (used by you).

AI tokens are like pieces of a puzzle, each representing a small chunk of text. Typically, a short word uses one or two AI tokens. The more text you input or request to generate, the more tokens are used. Tokens are counted in the query (which you don’t see) and in the answer (which is what you see).

Think of it as a way to measure how much content is being processed. In Game Squires, each Game Squires token is equivalent to 1,000 AI tokens. This means when you use a Game Squires token, it allows you to process text equivalent to what 1,000 AI tokens would handle. You can think of it as a larger chunk of your text being covered with each Game Squire token, making it easier to manage and keep track of your usage.

With this in mind, 1 Game Squires token would be equivalent to about 780 words. 200 tokens would be equivalent to ~156,000 words (about two novels).
