Penalty for not disclosing ai work

I've tagged all my fics as human-written so instead of doing that, only read fics with the human-written tag. Just filter for it, and ask other authors who are human-written to tag their works.
 
So I am just supposed to waste my previous time reading ai slop when I can read some authentic work?

Also, witch hunt is both bad and sounds bad. I am taking about enforcing rules so that people don't waste their time.

You can't enforce AI tags because you can't reliably determine what IS AI. AI detectors are bullshit, so it IS a witch hunt, because any accusation boils down to 'I think this real hard'. Wanting to penalize people for things you can't prove is the LITERAL definition of a witch hunt lol.
 
Fundamentally, the AI hate in story creation fields comes from not understanding how stories work. Not understanding the beating heart of the muse that brings life into stories.

Because as you develop that understanding, that intimate relation with Art, you realize that hating AI for making the stories bad is like blaming a soggy carpet for the flood.

Any writer ever that genuinely loves the art of the story is going to develop the skills of the art as a natural byproduct of loving the art. That is simply built in to what it is to love art.

A writer handed a tool to make part of the learning curve easier is going to pick it up and bother to learn how to use it. Whether that be AI, Writing guidebooks, Literature classes, ink so that they don't have to memorize the entire poem or saga, or the concept of writing in the first place.

Sure, advise individual authors about the known habit holes we're spotting around AI usage. Sure, personally scorn anyone using it openly if you aren't articulate enough to help them. Sure, act like someone who just hates reading but thinks they have to like it.

But the answer is not going to ever be found in screaming at the tool. If you love reading, act like it and foster writers. If you love writing, act like and foster readers.

If you're not here because you love something here that you can foster, why are you here instead of fostering your own growth in something you love?

That is a hell of a take, considering you don't actually explain it any further.

This is honestly wishful thinking at its worst. It totally ignores any other possibility other than one you have decided exists. Some will pick it up as a tool to help learn. Others will use it with no intention of learning just to churn out all they can. Others still will find other uses for it, like flooding question threads with nonsensical replies just to be an ass.

As for not screaming at the tool, a nuclear bomb is a tool. Nuclear proliferation treaties did a reasonably good job stopping us from having to live in a radioactive hellhole. Hyperbole? Perhaps but the point is that some tools are, in and of themselves, a problem.
 
You find a work that suddenly turns to AI-gen crap that isn't edited?

Provide a scathing constructive criticism that also warns any future readers that the lazy fuck in question didn't even bother editing and polishing the abortion they posted, that their whatever number of early chapters did have work put unto them, but the rest was left untouched as the deceitful failures that they are.

That's within rules, as they're being lazy shits coasting on their AI abortion generator.

Shame them then block them and their thread if you're feeling that strong about it.

Otherwise? Either start a thread listing such treacherous finds for others to chip in--with evidence of lack of edits, to back your claims--or just put their thread on ignore. It's easy and gratifying to do!

I've put several on ignore already! ;)
 
I am not pro-AI, but there are rules you need to follow. I strongly recommend you start webrings of authors you trust, talk about dropping stories you disliked, and participating in the writing community so that you can find like minded people who will help recommend fiction you enjoy. You are asking volunteers to do your job as a fan. The fiction is free, because it's free, it's your job to find art you enjoy.
