So according to the Have I Been Trained website, two of my older fanfictions have been used for AI training. To say I'm pissed is an understatement.
They may be fanfictions, but they're still MY work. My time, my energy, my emotions. They were not for someone else to take and use to contribute to this immense danger the livelihoods of creatives. And now I have to worry about literally everything that's on my Wattpad account potentially being scraped, because that's where those two were taken from. Fortunately it doesn't seem to have touched my Tumblr or AO3 at the moment. I think AO3 added something try to limit scraping a while back, but if this shit ever finds my Tumblr I'm throwing hands.
Before I go, quick PSA If you feed other people's work into AI, you're a thief and you are actively contributing to professional writers/artists losing their livelihoods. If you use or pay for generative AI that use work taken without consent, you're a thief and you are an active threat to the survival of creative workers.
If you're an artist, Glaze your work if you can. I heard someone made something similar for writing that I'm going to look into. If you use Glaze, consider Nightshade too, as it will damage the datasets your stolen work is put into to further discourage theft. I hope a Nightshade for writing comes out soon.
