We are here at eTail Palm Springs and seeing and hearing the latest and greatest in e-commerce and retail. Question: Do you need to choose between AI and human recommendations as a customer? Why not have both? After all, don’t each have their strengths? AI in the retail experience is all the rage these days, but today I’m talking with someone from a brand that has been incorporating AI-personalized experiences and shopping combined with expert human recommendations for over 14 years, and continues to innovate today. Today we’re going to talk about how AI-based personalization plus human creativity and input makes an amazing customer experience at Stitch Fix. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome Noah Zamansky, Vice President of Product and Client Experience at Stitch Fix.

GROGS is a supplement for Ars Magica 5th edition , edited by longtime ArM line-editor David Chart, released in 2012 and still in print.

This supplement presents systems and advice for expanding multi-character ‘troupe play’, a core concept of Ars Magica . Read the full show notes on our website! We explored Ars Magica way back in season 1, episode 9 . It’s an important game in the history of RPGs, co-designed by Mark Rein*Hagen who went on to create Vampire: the Masquerade , and Jonathan Tweet who was lead designer on Dungeons & Dragons 3e .

James Bond RPG 1:09:36

1:09:36

James Bond 007: Roleplaying In Her Majesty’s Secret Service was designed by Gerard Christopher Klug (known as Chris Klug these days) with development by Greg Gordon and Neil Randall, and was released by Victory Games between 1983 and 1987, selling over 100,000 copies. It is long out of print but available on the second-hand market at reasonable prices (as I write Noble Knight lists it at under $15 for the core rules) though the supplements are usually 200-500% more. This episode was made possible by our patron and friend Christian Bickle, who chose the game for us to cover. Huge thanks go out to him for letting us create a really fun episode.

Click here to read the full show notes! Night’s Black Agents: Double Tap is a ‘gear book’ from 2013, a collection of new equipment, background and game material for GM and players, written by Ken Hite and several others. It’s an expansion for Night’s Black Agents , an RPG of modern tactical espionage and vampires, also written by Ken Hite and published by Pelgrane Press in 2011.

Savage Worlds Adventure Edition 1:24:58

1:24:58

Savage Worlds Adventure Edition (SWADE) was designed and written by Shane Lacy Hensley with Clint Black, and published by Pinnacle Entertainment Group in 2023. It’s a generic rules system of cinematic action with a historied pedigree and an amazing range of sourcebooks, but how does it fare against more rules-y games like GURPS or narrativist darlings like FATE ? We take it apart to see what keeps its motor running, mechanically and stylistically, then put it back together to discuss how that affects play. As noted at the end of the episode, Greg and James were given PDF copies of the game by PEG and we are properly grateful for that.
