Hi,
It’s your friendly neighbor fanfic author here. In the light of this apparent new trend of people feeding unfinished fics to AI to get an “ending,” and some people even talking about “blanket permissions,” let me just say this:
I EXPLICITLY FORBID ANYONE TO FEED MY FICS TO AI. DUDE, THAT IS ABOUT THE LEAST RESPECTFUL THING YOU CAN DO. IF YOU DO IT, SHALL YOU BE EXCOMMUNICATED FROM YOUR FANDOM AND WALK ON LEGOS BAREFOOT TILL THE END OF DAYS.
That is my anti-permission.
Thank you for your attention.

⚠️ Fandom is Moving Forward with Generative AI ⚠️
Tumblr media
As of December 15, Fandom has announced their plans to continue using AI to "enhance" their articles.
In short, they claim to have primarily used AI to
Scan images for "appropriateness" (be that NSFW content or just fitting in with the theme of the show), which still involves scraping tons of images and comparing them to a potentially unethically sourced database. As with all machine learning using images, it is still wildly inaccurate.
Optimizing edits - something they admit is still severely lacking because it can't read tables or variants on simple things like "birthday"
Optimizing SEO - this is clearly what they care most about, since Google likes the "Quick Answers" - as shitty as they were - this means they can continue to dominate the search results and gain more ad revenue.
This is a good time to remember that Fandom is a for-profit company with inverstors, which means their end goal is always to make the most money possible. They don't care about "The Fans" (despite the lip service), and they don't care about the authenticity of user-generated content if they can figure out how to automate the process.
STOP USING FANDOM.
Alternatives/Workarounds:
Indie Wiki Buddy is an extension that will redirect you to non-Fandom versions of wikis if it's in their database.
BreezeWiki displays all Fandom wikis in a clean, ad-free format with just the article content (no links to their forums, autoplay videos, etc)
If you must use Fandom, install UBlock Origin. It's available on all desktop browsers and Firefox Mobile. Hit them where it hurts. And encourage the wiki teams to leave Fandom if they can.
Also, be sure to support independent wikis! You can disable adblockers while on their sites, as they usually have much less obtrusive ads which directly fund server maintenance rather than CEO salaries. Change links on your posts/pages to direct to non-Fandom Wikis (even wiki.gg is better).
Keep information free from corporatization.

I love it when anons/guests find my works and kudo/leave reviews, but given the new revelation that Elon Musk is using bots to mine AO3 fanfiction for a writing AI without writer's permission, my works are now archive-locked and only available for people with an AO3 account.

The Glaze Team at University of Chicago is conducting a survey which evaluates the ability of artists and software to distinguish between AI generated images and human made artwork
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Survey link here!
spread the word!
EDIT: As some users have already pointed out in the tags, opening the images in new tabs to zoom in will reveal whether they're real or AI generated in the URL. Proceed with caution. If you accidentally spoiled yourself just say you've seen the image before and move on to a new one.
EDIT 2: Reblogs have been disabled as the survey has ended.

Dunno if anyone's mentioned this yet, but I found a site where you can drop images to check whether they're AI generated or not and it will give you a percentage of how likely something is to be a machine generated imagine, or machine scraped text.
(images I knew for a fact were not machine generated because they predate it)

Before AI Voices: Oh cool someone posted a Bionicle advert on Tumblr, I'm gonna turn the audio on and have a nostalgia hit.
After AI Voices: Oh cool som- Wait. This is a shitpost where someone used AI to make Tony Wedgewood say a swear, isn't it?

The google ai is so bad for trying to search if foods are safe for me to eat, or if they’ll try to kill me. And underneath the ai answer bullshit there are hardly any reliable links.
If someone has even said the words gluten free in something then google will tell you the product is gluten free even if it’s not.
This is DANGEROUS!

This morning I learned there is now such a thing as online courses for "writing using AI" and I swear I felt physically nauseated (and frankly, a little violent). What in the seven hells is this dystopian *bleep*?!
I'm not anti-technology and AI has its uses (esp. since my job is tech-related), but AI has no place in the HUMANITIES.
I foresee the book publishing world becoming so bad in the near future, that I will be stuck reading the only things that are reliably AI-free: the classics (or anything pre-2000s), and fics/fanfics of friends whom I know hate this as much as I do.
I try to avoid even discussing controversial or negative topics on my blog, but this goes to show you how much I truly hate this and I just need to vent.
Putting some screenshots on here because I don't want to promote this crock other than to remind people this is why you need to please be mindful of your AI usage.

Using AI to write fics or books is gross.
Using AI to generate images for your fics is gross.
Tracing AI pics (images generated using stolen art, mind you) is gross.
Selling those traced images as commissions is also gross.
I will never support people who do any of this. It's ruining our fandom, and it sucks.
Support real artists and writers. Say no to AI

HEY FOLKS i highly doubt anyone on my flist follows me from my ffnet days but HERE IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT: 
I WILL BE REMOVING ALL FICS FROM MY FFNET PAGE AS A PRECAUTION. 
NOTHING about this latest trend in scooping fanfics and uploading them to ChatGPT is something i am comfortable with. I think it’s disgusting and disrespectful tbqh. i don’t want corps to do it and i definitely don’t want private folks to be doing it either. WHICH MEANS: since i can’t lock my ffnet account to registered users only, ALL THOSE FICS WILL BE CROSSPOSTED TO AO3 and then REMOVED FROM FFNET. 
i am sorry if this is inconvenient. i am protecting the stories i have literally sweat and cried over, for more than a decade of my life. if you don’t respect me enough as an author to be able to understand why i’m doing this, then kindly get the fuck off my page.

I feel like AI bros are the same as conspiracy bros in that they're highly insecure and want to be perceived better than they perceive themselves. They hate intellectual conversations because they cannot keep up with them. They hate artists because they cannot make their own art. It takes work to be smart and it takes work to make art, but they don't want to put in that work. They just want to be able to say they created something. It must be depressing to think like that.
