IMPORTANT: DO NOT CREATE BOTS WITH OUR FICS.
A mutual reached out to let us know that someone took one of our fics ( aiming the highest score ) and turned it into a character AI bot and we want to make our position on this absolutely clear.
We do not consent to our writing being used for any form of generative AI.
This should not need to be stated, because at this point, the ongoing discussions surrounding generative AI and its impact on artists and writers AND THE ENVIRONMENT are widely known and easily accessible.
Choosing to take someone else’s work and feed it into these systems is definitely a choice and you should feel ashamed and are aware we do not point out anything about plagiarism, copying, translation, or any of that because the writer has no problem with her works being taken as inspiration, the problem comes when you feed our bullshit to make worse bullshit.
What you did strips away authorship and the human effort behind what she created reducing it to material for automation without permission, which is deeply disrespectful.
And you didn't even let it marinate, we posted that shit four days ago, have some shame.
Make the comparisons by yourself.
