Stop AI Witch-hunting!

[Makimaam]

Maybe if he wasn't an insufferable narcissist with an ego as big and ready to burst as the Hindenburg, I'd be a little more open to what he wanted.

Does purposely misgendering someone, even after being asked repeatedly otherwise, help your argument? Or make you feel like a manly man?

@JayMark is going to go bonkers with the amount of straw in this thread

It makes me feel exactly as good as being a pretentious narcissist makes him feel. No more, no less.

Microsoft doesn't rely on AI - yet (heck they're behind the curve on this... talked to a guy they fired because his team was beaten to market by ChatGPT last year - he's now using AI, with a small team of people, to make movies...

Pass me that information, I also want to make animations xd

Whoa... How did this turn from - "you shouldn't carelessly accuse people" to a gender debate on what Pronouns to use?
-
Though my opinions on gender is vast and 100% politically motivated that's not really what the thread topic is about.
-
I personally don't care much about wether people use AI to generate stories or images. Though they shouldn't post in a place that actively tries to keep them out. Its stupid.
-
The with hunt is stupid, but it not going to stop simply because its a reaction to the threat of progress. No amount of interventions is going to change anything.

Just chill

Education mean nothing when it comes to simple writing. If you’re meticulous enough, you can write something decent. English isn't even my 3rd language and I have been writing for a long time.

This is something happened to me today. Someone raided our server, accused me of AI, more people in a few minutes joined and said that they were simply curious and said he was correct.

However, we got screenshots of their personal chats and this is what jobless witch hunters look like: (the bottom image is a screenshot my friend asked me to give to nullify the accusations)

As you can see, "THIS ISN’T IN THE FIC" & "THEY'LL KNOW", this was done due to personal vendetta, racism and oddly enough, sexism. They hated gender bender and didn’t like that in my fic, Reinhardt lost to Satella(Baru).

Noice.

and the text itself:

In the glistening, crystalline, most utterly alabaster expanse of an otherwise unnoteworthy winter morning—wherein each snowflake pirouetted in gravity’s gentle embrace as though choreographed by the invisible hand of a wistful frost-ghost—the fox jumped.

Yes. Jumped.

But before this jump—nay, this majestic propulsion of vulpine vivacity—there was silence. Pregnant silence. Not a silence of absence, but a silence full of potential, like a taut string humming with destiny, or perhaps like soup waiting to be microwaved.

The fox, whose name might have been Rendalorian (though none had asked), paused. The wind tousled his fur with the flirtatious grace of a thousand feathery whispers made corporeal, and his amber eyes stared deeply into the unspeaking snowdrift. Beneath it, a mouse? Or the Idea of a Mouse? Or perhaps his own self-doubt, buried?

He twitched.

A twitch that echoed across the ages of instinct, passed down from ancestor to ancestor in a sacred muscle memory of hunger and hope.

And then—

Explosion! Not of flame, nor light, but of paws—four of them, all present and accounted for—launched skyward in defiance of the tyrannical ground. Snow erupted around him in a paradoxical quiet cacophony, each flake recoiling as though personally affronted by the sudden disruption of their static choreography.

He arced. Oh, how he arced. The arc of that jump rivaled the curve of fate itself, if fate were a cold, soft thing made of ice crystals and regret.

Time stopped. Probably. Or maybe it didn’t. The narrative forgot to check.

And then—contact. The landing, less a fall than a poetic punctuation, marked the end of the jump and the beginning of the next phase: standing still, now with 73% more dignity. Whether the mouse existed was irrelevant. The jump had been.

And in the vast white nowhere, the fox blinked.

The snow did not applaud, but it might as well have.

Fin.

Because somebody is maliciously disrespecting me because they don’t like me. Over an opinion about robots. So it’s not a debate, I just want to be respected.

Does purposely misgendering someone, even after being asked repeatedly otherwise, help your argument? Or make you feel like a manly man?

This made me feel a little better, thank you :)

Witch hunts are lame.

I prefer to enact my legal right to give my opinion if something feels like chatgpt held their hand a little, with maybe a little butt squeeze on the side. If I see em dashes everywhere or character names that are commonly generated by chatgpt when you ask for fantasy names, I might call that out, and I have to people in the past. Perhaps I'll just call them lazy, maybe I'll tell them to seek therapy to quell their obsession with em dashes, who knows.

And purposefully using wrong pronouns out of spite is equally lame and petty.

As we all know, misgendering is only socially permissible when it's clearly a joke.
Like for example, telling my boyfriend 'Girl, please' or occasionally calling him a princess.

Lol, that's why never trust a detector.

Wait when did OP incite a witch hunt on others?

A couple weeks ago he made a thread about how everyone who uses AI covers on their (free) books is evil and wants artists to die, and they need to be banned from the site.

Man you really made a whole head canon about that thread despite it literally being linked earlier.

The Pay Artist thread you mean? I thought it was calling writers that detest LLM hypocritical for using AI covers because both writing and drawing are art and should hate AI equally. Did I misread it or something? I don’t recall inciting a witch hunt.

OtherSlater: "Entertaining me for free isn't good enough! You must only use the sources I deem acceptable, even if those sources cost hundreds or thousands of dollars! And if you don't comply, then your story should be removed from the site!"

"Hey, your writing sounds like it was AI generated."

OtherSlater: "SO WHAT IF SOMEONE USES AI? IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE! YOU'RE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO MAKE THOSE ACCUSATIONS! ALSO, I DON'T USE AI!"

Not only were his arguments fundamentally flawed and unrelated to this thread, he also made up facts, then argued and claimed that the OP said something she clearly didn’t. I don’t normally get involved in unnecessary drama, but fabricating facts, stating them confidently and defaming someone is a trait I despise most.

You know, maybe RR banned you for a reason.

Nah, he's just twisting the words in his head.
I think this thread is pretty much run its course. Kinda devolved into a kiddy fight.

OOOOOOOOOHHHHH

 

[TinaMigarlo]

No

is my memory faulty. It well could be.
I remember this sequence of events:

1) OtherSlater goes on a Dennis Miller rant
2) "Artists need paid!" blah blah. All AI covers need banned, or you should be ashamed! Pay us!
3) I was amused. Hey, I amuse easily. Sue me.
4) I click my ruby slippers three times. still here. These damn things don't work.
5) OtherSlater again. "Hey! I'm a writer now! I can do this, I'm an author now!"
6) I *wanna* remember, that at first, Slater said "AI helped, but just a little"
7) then, someone said "ha! the kettle is calling the pot black! how ironic is that!"
8) in a *poof* of smoke, like magic slater is "never using AI, and never did".
9) my memory is suspect, but going back through the posts, would see how good my memory is.

what's the moral of this story.
glad you asked.
all the witch hunt has accomplished?
people will still write "with AI".
You just taught them, to never say it (and not splash AI AI AI all over their bio)

I'm not sure what's been accomplished.
was the witch hunt fun? *hell* yeah.
ain't nothing more fun than all getting together, lighting the torches, sharpening the pitchforks.
its a group activity, like a block party.
but at the end of the day, what's been accomplished.
writers getting "helped" will just know not to say it.

in b4 thread locking, which my crystal ball says is... imminent.
if Tony wasn't off on the Translation Crusades.
(the Saracen are attacking back, lol)

 

[pangmida]

Slater said "AI helped, but just a little"

My memory must be faulty too because I don’t remember either of these I don’t even think OtherSlater is an artist (in the drawing sense), so they never said “pay us”. Unless… Do you have quotes?
