@RepOgles Nope. You don't get to slime your way out of that. You clearly said "So, I think we should kill them all." when you were being questioned about Palestinian children being shredded and bombed.

@PatrickJDoody You probably want to check if you opted out of Adobe using your data in you Adobe account. It's borderline scummy that this is enabled by default.

@Wikketui @clarkesworld "Exposure" is what kills you in winter in Alaska. Of course the ideal is to make at least enough to live on. It's not that I don't understand the goal - I think we all agree on it. It's that I think there will be unintended consequences that hurt new writers rather than help.

@Wikketui @clarkesworld That's the argument that Literary markets make, and I just disagree. The primary goal of getting published in a magazine is getting published in a magazine. Writers should be compensated as much as reasonable for their time just like anyone else.

@tzimgue @clarkesworld @jordanjlloydhq I get you now. I agree some kind of reputation thing would be ideal.

@Wikketui @clarkesworld $10 a month could be the barrier to entry for low income writers hoping to break out. People submitting AI stories for EZ CASH YO will pay $1. They aren’t exactly thinking rationally about writing. And where do you draw the line then? $2? $5 $50? Best not to go there.

@tzimgue @clarkesworld @jordanjlloydhq The problem is humans submitting AI writing. Those humans could verify just like anyone else.

@bardsandsages @clarkesworld I'm curious if there are boundaries around that clause? AI is actually pretty good at grammar checking and proof reading. (For the record I do NOT use it for fiction writing - but for everyday writing, it's very helpful)

@sinciforma @clarkesworld After playing with Chat-GPT extensively, it becomes obvious pretty quickly what a generated story reads like. I don't think us authors are in trouble at well-stablished markets ... at least not yet.
