I found out several of my works were stolen for AI, so I'll go ahead and say it here too; I'm not going to engage in discourse over this, I'm just going to ask that if you use gen AI, please stop. It works by stealing other people's work to Frankenstein it together based on a prompt, and wastes a lot of water/energy. It's not helpful, it's not able to tell fact from fiction, and it's not even a true AI when it lacks any real intelligence and is unreliable. Everything of mine published from June 2023 to present was stolen for this AI dataset. While I wasn't able to post most of these to Wattpad, know that this is well over 30 works. It's nearly all of my one-shots and 2 of my long fics; Fox Magick and Leila of the Prey. It's beyond disrespectful to me and all the other authors who had their works stolen :/

@jplupine Informative. Good to know and honestly, many should be aware of this. (^^)b!

@EmaanEnchantedInk Yeah, nearly every gen AI's dataset is made up of stolen works scraped from the internet. Some folks claimed an ethically sourced AI dataset was impossible since most people don't want their work fed into the program as fodder. So, AI largely runs on theft, and there are several copyright lawsuits against AI for this reason.

@jplupine This is terrifying and beyond cheating. Writing needs to be loved and created by own not copied. I didn't know how AI can be utilized in this, this is unfair and rude.
