Hey #litrpg fam. I've been posting my story on Royal Road for almost 2 months now. There's over 300 pages for you to read! If you're into LitRPG, progression fantasy, slice of life, and action/adventure, why not give it a shot? It's free to read!

You have nothing to lose but your boredom!

There's a "kingdom building" tag on Royal Road that might be worth checking out.

What does this mean, dog. Dramatization?

Andy is curious, kind, and generous (which is against the grain for a lot of LitRPG/isekai stories). There's a large cast, but my favorites include Tobo, a halfling tavern owner, and Percival, an adjunct professor at the enchanter's college who helps Andy run some tests on his weapons.

The MC is a young guy named Andy who was Isekai'd via falling piano. He arrives in a loosely D&D inspired world and trains in fighting with a revolutionary group. He eats lots of great food and inadvertently gets forced to fight in an upcoming tournament where he's almost certainly toast.

Nice! I started reading LitRPG during the sysapoc wave, but I'm an isekai fan for the most part. From what I understand, though, the genre really got traction from VRMMO stories originally. At least on the Russian scene?

You'll see, ultimately, an exercise in self-destruction.

Now, if OAI can subsidize business applications with their upcoming porn bots, then maybe it's a different story.

3. Loss of quality impacts sales, but still worth it for savings.

4. Honeymoon period ends. Cost of AI goes up, destroying incentive to diminish quality of product.

5. ???

I think you're right that AI *can* replace labor, it will likely be for a brief moment that ends in crisis for C-suite.

Assuming we are currently getting AI at a steep discount for the consumer and AI diminishes product quality:

1. C-suite fires labor and replaces with AI.

2. Quality of product diminishes, but it's an acceptable sacrifice for savings.
