I was going through my art from a while ago and genuinely what happened to my art style during like December and November

Like-

...

Who possessed me

Why did my art look like THIS for a month and then go back to my silly little guys

[polka-dottedsilkk]

I check my phone every 30 mins refreshing my ao tab waiting for serve me to update. I skipped a party to read it on the fourth and it’s still under the works 🥹🥹 Ik we’ll be fed though

i want to start by saying that i am so deeply sorry for everyone who read and actively supported wheezingwheeler and super soaker. without the things that have recently come out there was no way to know that they had been using AI to write. so many of my friends and mutuals loved this work and its so disheartening to see the disappointment that is circulating.

i’ve made my thoughts on AI abundantly clear (here) many times, but i haven’t really said my piece on AI fan fiction.

i am a firm believer that fan fiction (and most other fan created content) is the purest form of art. no one that writes fan fiction is doing it for any kind of profit or recognition. they do it because they love their fandom and they want to see the characters that they love get the endings and stories they deserve. using AI to create fan fiction takes away the heart and soul that makes it so special.

as a fan fiction author, it’s so discouraging to see a fic written by AI gain so much traction. while i understand that there was no real way to know for certain up until now, it’s still upsetting. to know that an art form that i pour a lot of love and attention into can be made within seconds by a robot and do so well is so sick to me. 

i personally never read super soaker (i read the first two chapters a few days ago and something felt off so i didn’t continue) but i’ve seen so much fan art and discussion of it that im pretty familiar with it. there’s no doubt about how big of an impact this fic has had on this fandom. 

being apart of the byler fandom, i typically pride myself in knowing that our community is so anti-AI. i do think that this is an exception to that, considering i don’t think that the person behind this was ever really involved or interested in our actual fandom. that doesn’t at all make it okay. it’s insane to me that someone would fake writing a fan fiction over the course of several months.

more than anything, i want the public reception to this situation to show that it is so worth it to create things yourself. it’s very comforting to see that so many people have expressed the fact that they appreciate human-made art.

always remember that true talent, love, and passion can never be replaced. those things are the heart and soul of fan-created content and they are so important. keep creating, keep practicing, and keep trying.

and no matter what, as a fandom, this certainly isn’t the worst thing that’s happened to us.

YALL IM CRYING

wheezingwheeler deleted their ENTIRE ao3 account 😭😭😭

I went to look them up to see if super soaker was still up and this was all that came up IM DYING

[halflitpages]

re: super soaker discourse

i know everyone is probably frustrated right now and rightfully so but i’ve been seeing a new wave of “please don’t let ttmd;ttms be ai” and regarding that, in the nicest way possible, y’all are kind of missing the point of this whole ordeal 😭 this incident should be everyone’s reminder to stop treating fandom as algorithmic. the way byler nation has been moving since january is more than a little disappointing with the hive mind mentality and such. we used to be significantly better at avoiding this on tumblr especially but as expected, that didn’t last. this is your sign to stop playing into the hive mind and using clout as a measure of value because fanfic is supposed to be for personal enjoyment. everything we do here is supposed to be out of passion and for the love of the game. please keep that in mind 🤍

[polka-dottedsilkk]

I’m sorry but every time I hear Will or Mike double checking if what they’re doing is really okay and clarifying consent, it makes me FOLD.

[miwiheroes]

"i go back to december all the time" and its about reading the power outage fic, watching byler edit after byler edit, seeing everyone becoming a byler shipper, and listening to wsqk radio when i thought it was giving us hints

[socialistexan]

I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.
