#DON'T SUPPORT AI WRITING
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
The ai discourse in fanfic writing only exists because people view fics as products for consumption and not works of art.
The same curse that plagues visual artists, youtubers, musicians, etc etc is starting to creep into fandom circles, because people don't appreciate the art form that is writing as much as they gobble almost mindlessly work after work without absorbing. It's almost like the high of binging a series and being left numb after is done, realizing you didn't savoured the story as much as just simply rushed to the end.
Fic writers will never work as fast as some stupid ai does. It's a labor of love that will, for the great majority, earn us no money or notoriety. The minimum any writer wants is connection and respect.
#I'm so sick of this consumerist way of appreciating art#this bothered me b4 watching booktubers and their *ridiculous* hauls and the speed which they read#I'm not saying it's impossible to read something in one sitting#but how is one supposed to appreciate the content just brushing past the words and the story#to see it happen with fanfic. tho i don't think this is recent but never been as bad as it is now. makes me terribly sad#fanfiction#ai fanfic#fandom#rambles#to summarize#DON'T SUPPORT AI WRITING#HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF WRITERS OUT THERE GOING UNDERAPPRECIATED#ALSO FICS DON'T BECOME OBSOLETE AFTER YOU READ THEM. GO BACK THERE AND APPRECIATE THEM#and listen I'm saying this from a place of loving fandom corners with few fics. short fics mostly#and the content i crave. i write even if it isn't the work of art my favorite writers create#write *cringe weird bad amateur* fiction and give your brain all those happy neurotransmitters that soulless unoriginal ai can't

I don't understand people who say things like 'but it doesn't matter if we don't pay artists/writers for their labour, or use free AI programs to replace artists/writers to improve our profits, because in a perfect world everyone would have UBI so it wouldn't matter xxx'
like. yes. but until we reach that perfect world, artists and writers need to eat?
why are you promoting AI replacement of creative people instead of working towards UBI? Until we have UBI, supporting generative AI in the creative field is no different to supporting supermarkets laying off all their till staff to turn to self-check out, or supporting factories who shut down and move overseas to exploit workers in countries with fewer human rights legislations?
Yes, in a perfect world, everyone would receive UBI. Therefore, people across the globe couldn't be exploited by corporations, and artists could create for the joy of it, in whatever way we desire - including with AI!
But we do not live in that perfect world.
Do you seriously expect this move towards generative AI to encourage people to support UBI, as opposed to people being forced into jobs they hate to make ends meet or no longer being able to support themselves financially?
Especially all the disabled people who make a living creating art and writing/editing, because that is, in fact, a career that is often far more available to disabled folks than a regular 9-5 or a retail job where you're expected to be on your feet all day (miss my disabled ass with the 'anti-AI = ableism' stance lmao).
This is not going to create your army of revolutionaries. This is just going to result in more independent creators being crushed under the boot heel of capitalism, as anyone who would've hired them flocks instead to the free alternative, and they're forced back into an incredibly exploitative labour market.
I agree that generative AI by itself is just a tool and is not inherently a problem.
But it is being abused, in ways that hurt creators.
If you support generative AI... what are you doing about that?
#generative AI#nanowrimo#seeing some real bad takes#and don't get me STARTED on the ableism take. I cannot hold a pen due to disability. I cannot do calligraphy.#I can use Dragon voice-to-text in a calligraphic font. That is not the same as doing calligraphy.#It's okay to acknowledge that.#If you pretend it IS the same and try to award me in a calligraphy contest...#that is in fact patronizing and - dare I say - ableist#if someone needs so many adaptations that they are no longer doing the same thing as abled people you don't have to pretend otherwise#like with my dancing! I can't dance in a way that would be recognised as such by abled people. but I don't want to be measured against them#even as a weird 'consolation prize' for not being able to master the same skills due to disability!#I'd much rather take part in a disabled dance event where we all do our own thing and celebrate that for what it is!#because IT *IS* DIFFERENT. DUE TO DISABILITY. and that's okay! that's not shameful!#hell make a generative AI celebration week where you support disabled creators! if you care so much!#but pretending generative AI is the exact same thing as plotting and writing a novel or learning how to draw#is really patronizing and not the hot take you think it is

At the rate you update I'm gona finish your series in chatgtp
Yeah, no.
That's not it.
If you want an AI to spit out a story for you, that's on you. But I did not spend days and weeks plotting, writing and rewriting and going over a fic ten times for you to threaten to put it onto an AI for a quick update.
I work. I am a nurse. I also have a family and friends, and have many other hobbies. Many writers can give you fics on the daily, but I can't. I've never done it and I won't start now. If you want daily updates find another author for you or write yourself.
I write slow, I don't have much time for it. I also have mental and physical issues. I doubt everything I write as English is a self taught language for me. And I've stopped enjoying a series or no longer vibe with it I won't write it because I won't force myself to post some half assed shit that will disappoint others and myself
Feeding fics to AIs is what drives authors away from writing and out of their blogs. Comments like these won't make us update faster it'll only make us wanna quit
#asks#please don't do this#have some respect to your artists#fuck AI#respect writers#support writers#support content creators#stop ai#support artists#respect artists#anti ai writing

watching nanowrimo defending ai blow up after years of abuse and mismanagement from nano hq is like watching every writer on the internet go "i can excuse rampant forum moderation abuse on two different websites but i draw the line at machine that helps you write"
#lifeblogs#nanowrimo#the defending ai is a direct result of the abuse and mismanagement anyway#if all that hadn't happened we wouldn't have one person making every decision based on what gets the most sponsor money#which is how we got to the defending ai. one of their sponsors uses it.#but it is frustrating to watch this show up in spaces where i've never seen anyone talking about nano before because everyone hates ai#and not because of the actual deeper issues#especially when people are like 'i thought people might want to know. in case you don't want to support them.'#likeee i've been not supporting them...#i was there (the public moderation record and forum culture and feedback threads)#by the way the machine that helps you write in question DOES very clearly suck in the sense that it will make your writing worse#but it just is not the biggest problem here.

Dating Jason Kolchek headcanons (Jason Kolchek x fem reader)
He leaves you for a man
#it's ya pal jean#i am......... on the 20th page of ao3 for this series send ai--#actually don't send air support nothing good ever comes from the military especially in dpa#it's crazy to me that their ship alone eclipses every other fic for the other series in the anthology combined#the lead creative was onto something when he said the team writes horror but what they really write is relationships#the recent lits play interview is so good i love metaphors and bideo games

Brief rant but there is something so appalling to me when I see a writer use AI-generated images (no I won't call it art because it isn't, tyvm) for the header/cover of their writing/fic.
People don't want their work scraped. Be it writing, visual arts, music or voices even. But then go and use AI-generated shit out of an art field they don't actively contribute to. It disgusts me. Have you no conscience or shame?
Most writers are actively against the use of AI. Many people don't want to read fics written by AI.
So for the love of god...
If you're against AI - fucking be against it in all art forms and not just your own. It's hypocritical af!
#🍁 dust rambles#gonna start blocking every single fic author I see using AI generated images#I'm tired of it#support fellow artists regardless of the field#don't be hypocritical and only be against it as long as it affects you#writing#lately I'm also seeing more and more musicians using AI for their song cover artworks#and it pisses me off beyond belief#a bit of reflection would do some people good#god I'm so angry about AI bullshit#and frankly I'm tired of seeing it#fucking low quality ass garbage#*inhales* I'm clam again#just needed to get this off my chest

anyone can unfollow if they think it's cool to post or purposefully interact with ai art btw
#especially when it comes to vampire chronicles#this fandom is so small and the artists who write and draw for it deserve to be uplifted. not ai#it's not okay that i'm seeing ai vc art at all actually. do you care about these characters..?? do you care about artists?#if you want to see your characters in a situation you can commission an actual artist :/there are so many opportunities to support amazing-#artists in this fandom. please don't waste your platform on garbage#sorryyy rant over :/#saying things

I don't want to like send people after the OP so I'll just say it like this but
Do not use AI of Characters Voices / Voice Actors
Most VAs have asked not to do this, it steals their voice & work. People put that in the machine without the VAs consent.
Idc if you use it for "just a meme", a boundary is a boundary.
"But I want it to be vouce acted :(" - there are plenty of hobby VAs who will do imitations of characters for free. Contact them. Ask them. They love doing that kinda stuff! Plus you're supporting someone's work and passion that way, instead of stealing someone's voice!!
#murder drones#voice acting#voice actors#ai voice#don't support ai#ai supprters dni /srs#in voice in writing and in “art”#stop stealing creatives work ffs#important#respect artists#respect voice actors

Just making a general post real quick in response to an ask.
When I say I'm anti-ai I mean I'm against any sort of AI that steals from others or would otherwise be used to put people out of a job. I don't feel like having an elaborate conversation about the positives and negatives of AI and all that, so I'll state this as plainly as possible.
I don't like AI art. I don't like AI voice impersonations. I don't like any sort of AI that has to steal stuff from people without their consent in order to function. That is literally it.
I'm not against ALL AI. I don't think people that are okay with AI in general should be burned at the stake or something. I'm just an artist and writer that doesn't like AI being used in CREATIVE SPACES. That's it.
I didn't think I would have to clarify this but, here you go, for anyone that was bothered.
#to the person who sent the ask#hopefully this clears things up#I answered you in this general post#because I didn't want to risk people getting upset at you#if they didn't like what you said. Think of this as me keeping you anonymous#I'm sorry if you see me as a “guilt-tripper” but you made that assumption based on minimal knowledge of my character#like. VERY minimal knowledge#you know nothing about who I am as a person or what the depth of my opinion was#you just saw me putting “fuck ai” in my tags and assumed that I meant ALL AI#which isn't an unreasonable assumption. it's a vague statement. But the ONLY reason I use vague tags is because it reaches more people#plus if you ACTUALLY look in the fuck ai tag it's mainly about AI art and such#so to just automatically label me as a guilt-tripper instead of trying to express that you respectfully disagree with my opinion#or what you THOUGHT was my opinion anyway#was something I really didn't appreciate#that being said#I'm not interested in turning this into some sort of conversation.#please don't respond to this directly#I've voiced my opinion on the matter. That's where this ends.#anyway extra tags that you can ignore//#artists on tumblr#small artist#oc artist#anti ai art#anti ai writing#anti ai voices#support human artists#human artist#fuck ai art#fuck ai writing#anti ai

So I thought I’d give a little life-update as there’s a lot going on at the moment and I think it’s visible on my blog as well. Maybe the positives first:
I do really like my new work, I like that I have set hours (even if I do overtime here and there) and though it got incredible stressful the last few weeks, I think the four people that work in my office space are the coolest in the whole company and I love the support I am getting, it’s something I always wanted for my work-life tbh! My dog is also doing very fine, she’s really a total sweetheart and I wouldn’t know what to do without her, and at least I, myself, am doing pretty okay-ish physically, so nothing to complain there.
Now to the negatives.
Unfortunately, my mom’s cancer returned but is quite hard to pinpoint. She went back to an even more aggressive chemotherapy and we’re hoping for the best. Honestly, I don’t wish cancer on anyone, it’s such a tough battle and even just as the primary caretaker it’s been really hard to deal with for me, luckily I have grandparents and a brother who all deal with it and help and support, so that’s good! My mental health though is suffering. It’s biting my own butt now, but I cancelled therapy to focus on work at the beginning of this year and now my therapist is fully booked, so I will have to sit out this month probably. I am telling that because that’s the reason I am struggling with concentrating on one thing for a long time, which includes writing, which explains the fluctuation of posts you are seeing, since I try to get requests and drafts done on the weekend when there’s less stress. Sadly only works like 30% of the time...
Going forward I have decided to indefinitely pause commissions. I have noticed that they put too much pressure with the deadline and expectancy on me when I am already struggling and sometimes need a day to myself. I can’t say when they’ll come back, but thank you all so much for your interest and support, it’s always a pleasure to write your ideas and I never had a bad experience with commission ♥
Good news for Mermay: it’s still happening! ... buuuut I am shortening the story I came up with. I think I was too ambitious with the three routes I teased, so I am trying to figure out how to ensure that it won’t drag out as much as Atreo’s story last year. Unfortunately, the start will be delayed some more, but we were going to celebrate Mer-June anyway, so at this point it probably doesn’t make as much difference (’:
Because the question arose a few times already, I will not be playing Honkai Star Rail. It has a few reasons, but the main one is I don’t have the time. Sorry to everyone who asked about it, but it’s just not the right time for me at the moment! ): I’ll probably be miserable again later when everyone has moved on to it and I am stuck behind but I have to make cuts somewhere ;;
I actually have some commissions and requests that I haven’t released yet, so I will try to schedule some of these in the meantime while I work out how to go about stuff. If you’ve been around for a while you probably know I like routines that’s why it’s always important for me to build them and keep them up. Other than that, I’ll probably focus on Mermay and my own writing projects which will happen rather irregularly. No guarantees on posting, sadly ):
I do realize tho that it just isn’t always possible to keep up frequency of posts and interactions I had when I started this blog, as much as it saddens me. I have to prioritze my real life before my internet presence (and I really need to not feel guilty about taking breaks from everything ever so often ;;), so if you see me vanishing for a few days, it’s just that really.
Thank you everyone who stuck around and supports this blog ♥ There’s another big milestone coming up veeery soon and I am always in awe that so many people would stay to read my silly little stories!! If you have some time and don’t mind waiting for a response, I’m always happy to chat and answer questions, so please don’t hesitate to hit me up!
Thanks everyone ♥
#Admin#Also I found a new editing program that I want to try out soon-ish#if something changes about my writing... it could be my editing ^^'#But Grammarly also now has an AI thingy and bleh#Don't really want to keep supporting it since it's also not really made for non-professional writing stuff

I swear to god dude if my mother sends me one more fucking article or course or whatever abt using ai in a schooling environment I'm actually going to combust
#I don't trust it to give me academically sound information. I don't trust it to write summaries of reading for me. I don't fucking trust it#and I don't fucking support it#she should KNOW that I will never want anything to do with that! I don't CARE if u think it'll make my disabilities more manageable!#thats FUCKED UP!!! I don't want it brother leave me Alone#I've told her all this like a billion times. but she keeps sending it to me. I'm gonna lose it#armchair speaks#anti ai#<- if it wasn't clear lmao /gen

I JUST FINISHED SONIC FRONTIERS AND. ARE YOU FOR REAL. ARE YOU FREAKING FOR REAL
RIGHT AFTER I POSTED MY LONG ANALYSIS ABOUT HOW GIRLS IN SONIC GAMES ARE PRACTICALLY AN ENDANGERED SPECIES
#deerchatter#sonic frontiers#sage the ai#sonic frontiers spoilers#caps cw#yes im putting this in all the tags. look at my post boy#linking the post in question in a reblog#also yeah yeah yeah i know about the post-credits scene but YOU CANNOT TELL ME WE'RE EVER ACTUALLY SEEING SAGE AGAIN#sega's gonna read 1 review calling her cringe and be like get RID of the girl character we can't let people know we CAN'T WRITE WOMEN#sage is going to pop up as an unvoiced unlockable character in a spin-off phone game once and maybe get a comic cameo#this is so funny. it's so so so funny. literally like 3 days after i posted that analysis#she hits all the qualifiers too. supporting female character in her debut game going through emotional turmoil and dying at the end#to save a male recurring character she cares about and protect the world. she even got a dramatic space explosion like cosmo#the absolute comedic timing of it all. im crying but not for the reasons the game wanted me to i don't think#sonic frontiers was great otherwise btw had a lot of fun collected a lot of shapes 7/10 fun times good times lol#sketchertalkssth

As if the whole AI art thing isn't already terrifying enough, now I learn that AIs are starting to replicate writing and...I just don't know.
Like, people have been running writers and artists off the Internet for actual years not even for being problematic people themselves, but for even daring to create art about problematic things. All this talk of "writing something=endorsing it IRL" just makes me fear that the book I've been working on for years with themes of kidnapping and abuse and mental health will be dead on arrival, because if an AI can create something fluffier that fits in more with the current standards of what's acceptable in Internet fandom subcultures, something that you won't be demonized for reading, them why wouldn't people pick that instead?
I know I'm probably being short-sighted and overly dramatic right now, and I want to believe that so desperately. That people will still want to challenge their mindsets with art that covers uncomfortable topics. But the Internet always seems to find a new way to prove me wrong.
So please, please continue to engage with artists, even if they aren't always perfect. Because for a lot of us, the minute we find out that there's a nonhuman presence that can train itself to become that way, we feel like we've already lost inside our head.
Please don't let us lose in the real world, too.
#ai art#alexandria rambles#negativity#ai writing#i don't talk about my writing struggles often on here but the longer i go the more i fear my writing's gonna become obsolete#my post#this is just an rambling response i typed up to get my feelings out so feel free to ignore it lmao#putting my thoughts down and seeing support for artists in the tag has already started to make me feel better

@staff
SERIOUSLY.
Didn't the porn-ban teach them yhe first time?
They'll collapse their whole business again and be handed their financial ass.
There's no "win scenario" for a platorm cannibalizing the work of people that provide the entirety of it's content FOR FREE.
Ads are one thing.
Using my work to promo your site and get said ad contracts, that's fine too, because the platorm is free and it needs a way to generate revenue.
We get that.
But STEALLING OUR WORK AND FEEDING IT TO THE TECH BROS WHO ARE THREATENING MY ABILITY TO JUST EXIST is completely, and unequivocally unacceptable.
It's garbage behaviour of the worst caliber and I'm so damn tired with how stupid it all is.
@staff
OUR CONTENT SHOULD BE OPTED OUT OF AI TRAINING BY DEFAULT!
#support human artists#fuck ai art#fuck ai everything#fuck ai writing#art#you're taking the side of the disease that'll kill us all instead of helping find a cure#seriously don't you see how good for your brand it'd be to STAND WITH YOUR USERS?#reblog#rant#i'm so tired#and angry#mostly angry#enraged actually

girl i am by no means a tswift stan but like........when you spend your free time compiling a post about her Years worth of having bangs or wearing clothes back to front, just to complain about it??? sounds kind of like you Are
#as a fundie ''''snarker'''' i have little room to talk#but as i've discussed prev i don't align myself w that facet of snark communities#like i understand being so annoyed w someone that even the small shit gets under your skin#hence why so many comms have bitch eating crackers tags#but also like. there are So many things to discuss irt How the actions of these people hurt others#instead of just making dozens of posts about why someone's outfit sucks or why you think they're ugly oh my god#like???? i'm sincerely So sorry you have to resort to that bc you don't fully understand Why these people are hated so much#on an ethical / moral level#but also like? you have internet access & free time to do This comma surely it isn't Too Much to do some wide reading#& gain some media literacy & critical thinking skills#& not to continue this tangent but omg the Same Vein as people who would rather post in a comment section or make a Whole New Post#about a topic or video or picture they see & just Wait for someone to explain it to them#rather than idk putting it into a search engine??#which would be quicker??? & make you idk think for yourself???#& ik ai is making it harder to get accurate answers but!! alternative options are out there!!!!#& also again like. it Really feels like these people should not be old enough to be on these parts of the internet#idk like they haven't yet learnt primary / elementary level comprehension skills#ie look at this picture. what do you see in it and why do you think it's there#or read this passage. what is this specific part telling you that supports the message of the whole piece of writing#etc#just completely do Not have any curiosity or initiative or thirst for information even when it helps them better understand the world ugh
