@9131film the “majority” of their words are their own???? that’s such a low threshold omfg

[joey @jey5984]

@pas__de_deux__ or get a beta reader!

[joey @jey5984]

@caecelist yep i agree i think that’s the thing we as a community should agree to do and act on. maybe the push to tag it is just like a lowest common denominator thing—until we all agree any AI usage is bad, at the very least we should be given the choice to disengage

[joey @jey5984]

@caecelist yeah pretty much. hmmmm i guess it does kind of just serve to legitimize AI use among the people who like it so it becomes a DLDR thing when it should be totally unacceptable. ok you’ve changed my mind

[joey @jey5984]

@caecelist yeah you’re right it’s not a perfect solution but i think it’ll maybe change the latter case, and it’s something that can reasonably go hand in hand with encouraging people not to use AI at all…there’s not much more we can realistically do

[joey @jey5984]

@_cuetheviolins ok easier than i thought here

[🌬️ @coldtothetouchh]

if you want to add this AI detector to your current skin without it breaking anything, paste this directly at the bottom of your code

this version will turn the entire text red and also hightlight which parts were detected to be AI generated.

@_cuetheviolins someone made one i can dig around and try to look for the tweet so i can credit them but if not i also have the code copied give me a min

[joey @jey5984]

@ghostiesdagger and even if they do somehow get access which is rarely common practice, how often do betas copy-paste entire original sentences???? they’re mostly there for spell check and grammar, and changes of substance are left for the author to change later

[joey @jey5984]

@rocleradin lmaoooooooooo

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated yessssss exactly! furthermore i think AI degrades the community practices and traditions inherent to fandom. people use it to generate ideas instead of taking reader prompts or requests… they use it to proofread instead of getting a beta… it’s anti-social!

[joey @jey5984]

@bbhollanov goes to show AI use is all about the output!!! they don’t even care to keep the text in their own google doc… just straight into the editor so they can publish it for external validation. they dgaf about the writing process at all

[joey @jey5984]

@femmezzn @atticwifes this is simply false

[joey @jey5984]

@B3belee @transgrezivelit oh def not 😭 classic books are classic for a reason, because they have GOOD writing. this line is empty of meaning and clumsy, and it kind of reads like it’s full of itself

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew coming back to this to say “fandom social contract” is an inspired phrase and idea. john locke fucking wishes he was on your level lmaoooo

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew actually you know what i’m gonna say the most comparable shift is the invention of the internet. the shift from mags, zines, and letter writing to mass access archives was the most relevant precedent vis a vis societal shifts then shifting fandom behavior

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew wellllll that’s a super interesting question thank you… i guess in the spirit of ao3 not banning things tagged AI should probably be allowed even though i revile it… and you’re right that if it were fully banned it would cause a perpetual witch hunt

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew yeah i haven’t been this involved in fandom discourse in the past so couldn’t name it specifically but covid was definitely a turning point in fandom etiquette because people had nothing better to do and felt entitled to demand everything from authors…

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew caveat to this is authors who use untagged AI in their writing. frankly they deserve to be named and shamed (provided there is actual proof they use it)

[joey @jey5984]

@sightlyfixated @wintergrew i think we’re arguing past each other a little. i agree it’s really rude to aim unsolicited criticism at individual writers but we should be able to criticize larger writing trends without naming individuals, and that falls outside the scope of DLDR
