Many magazines have closed their submission portals because people thought they could send in AI-written stories.

For years I would tell people who wanted to be writers that the only way to be a writer was to write your own stories because elves would not come in the night and do it for you.

With AI, drunk plagiaristic elves who cannot actually write and would not know an idea or a sentence if it bit their little elvish arses will actually turn up and write something unpublishable for you. This is not a good thing.

    (shameless self-plug)

    nice. I’ve got one of the others after I found it a while back, but it looks like yours has a narrower scope?

    for places like deviantart… yeah. I don’t really know how you reverse that. containment by clearly marking all the profiles/uploaders (after some way it was detected)? community maintained lists which help defend?

    it’s such a fucking mess. and we have no choice but to deal with it, otherwise it will just make things even worse. that’s the thing that really fucks me off about this stuff. all the undue extra work created for many, many people by the inconsiderate actions of far fewer that nonetheless don’t care about their actions.
