Whether it is meant to be accurate or not, you A) label this as being for Edo Era Japan, a real time and place, and B) have one half of your book specifically cordoned off as fiction. These two things, taken together with no other disclaimer, present the other half as being nonfiction about said time and place.

Also, I motioned towards this before, but to say it more plainly - this is something you clearly and openly copied from a different source, and are now selling for money, despite it just being a re-organization of material from someone else's tool. This not okay and could be illegal!

I am not a lawyer, but, you are selling something from Google without their permission. Even if it was edited, the baseline material - as you've said - is taken from Bard AI, and that itself may be taking training data from copyrighted material (which it would then potentially spit out verbatim every so often, something that is more likely over 200+ pages than a single prompt). If I were you, I would not sell a supplement like this without something signed and stamped confirming that I wouldn't be obliterated in court over it, by Google or by anyone Google might have taken training data from.

If you want to share a big collection of AI responses with people because you think they'd be a useful resource, then that is your prerogative, but I would think twice before charging money for them. Like I said previously, I don't think it's worth it to buy a collection of prompts when you can just go use Bard AI yourself - and, by extension, I don't think it's worth the massive legal risk to get a bit of money from people interested in such a thing.

Hey, notice for people - this book contains large amounts of erroneous information, and even if you were okay with an AI's version of Japan's history, you could go use google's Bard AI yourself without paying 4 dollars for this.

As a rule, do not trust AI for accurate information - it is communicating info-chunks that sound like they "should" be correct when it responds to a prompt, not actually comprehending the context behind a question. I understand that for a TTRPG, when you need content fast, they can be a handy resource for quickly generating fictional concepts, but if you want accuracy, do the research yourself.

The quickest and simplest method for accurate information is to go to Wikipedia, read through, and then go read through the things Wikipedia itself is sourcing. It's not perfect, but it will give you real information from multiple sources. For something like the history of another country, specifically seeking out resources from or recommended by people from that country is also a good idea. Overall, just make sure you've checked multiple sources to confirm that the information you've gotten is correct, and not something that someone posted as a joke or misinformation... or something improvised by a language model.

No worries, thank you for the clarification! Can't wait for Mutants In The Next <3

Hi there! Got the game on DTRPG, love it and will almost certainly be getting Mutants In The Next, but I have a quick question I can't find an answer to: the Wild Companion gimmick says it lets you use a natural weapon at a range, but does it count as a melee attack or ranged attack? (For the stats added to your attack roll, what you can add to the damage dice, and possibly other edge case rules bits)
