like...writers...you can't rail against A/I books then turn around and use A/I covers artists, why would you denounce A/I art but casually use ch@tgpt same goes for A/I voices and music we are ALL at risk of getting exploited -- we shouldn't be sabotaging each other and making it easier for them

PSA: It’s not okay to bash writers for sharing links to their works on Amazon. I know Amazon is shitty but it’s not on writers who are just trying to survive to change a whole distribution system that is deeply ingrained, no matter how bad that system is.

Today on the blog I wrote about how we keep telling the same, boring, wrong history over and over again, instead of doing more complex and interesting work, and why. Like, why are we talking about Magna Carta ever let alone in the Temple Church? going-medieval.com/2025/02/12/o...

Writer Beware has gotten complaints that Word Alliance Literary Agency (not really a lit agency) is contacting writers to offer editing jobs. The "jobs" are already-published books, w/ pmt on completion; scam then asks for writer's bank account info. Discussion here: www.reddit.com/r/writing/co...

And why humans doing their own security is a terrible idea, since they’re actually way more likely to flip out and shoot everybody for no reason than combat bots are.

The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.
