AI is much like smoking (hey, it is killing the atmosphere! ). Even if a good writer uses it, the usage itseld can still cause harm for others.

Oh it’s for the correct sound distinction. Compare naïve vs naive (eg.: glaive).

I’d take it part of the problem is that publisher is quite a “unglorious” job to say somehow. Like, it’s difficult to make it look fancy or interesting enough that you’d take effort, time and resources from other things you could be doing - such as, ya know, writing the story you want to write - to have to do that.

Cute, but we all know the only way these writers are going to get what they want is if they part ways from their current publishers and start a coöperative.

The latter part makes sense to me tbh. Machines should not allowed to compete with humans (in creative endeavours) because it is an intrinsically unfair competition that further erodes the rights of those humans who are more vulnerable, in the circumstance that is opposite to the intent of having machines around in the first place. They are supposed to do our beast-of-burden work, not make it so that our only pending value to be extracted by capitalism is beast-of-burden work.

What I’m not sure I buy is the idea that the “countless works” generated by AI actually compete with the original, in particular if they are non-infringing. Let’s say I take the work of an author to train an AI on their style. The author writes exclusively noir; I instruct the AI to generate college drama in the same style. Are the new works competing? The author won’t offer me a college drama in the first place.

Huh. The things I miss out of these days!

I’m quite lost (disinterested) on MCU stuff as of late, what’s going on about Thor? Is there a game?

Oh? Where do you guys get these? I get mine from

Wait, it works for you, too?

Capitalism shows that it does indeed work! Just not for the average us.

So yeah, a metaphor for capitalism.

Just because a law exists, doesn’t make it good. Even getting good laws made these days in the first place often requires lobbying, under-the-table deals and such.

Or just look at ICE. Tell me exactly how are they not corrupt.

What’s corrupt about slavishly enforcing IP law for RIAA

You really typed that without even an ounce of self-awareness?
