look, all i’m saying, is that a Shadow mini series directed by Rebecca Sugar would be fantastic and deeply painful.

i hope this doesnβt need to be said but just in case
you might have seen people talking about sudowrite and/or their tool storyengine recently
and just likeβ¦ donβt. donβt do it. donβt try it out just to see what itβs about.
for two main reasons:
1) never feed anything proprietary into a large language model (LLM, eg ChatGPT, google bard, etc.).
this means donβt give it private company information when youβre at work, but also donβt give it your original writing. thatβs your work.
because of the way these language models work, anything you feed into it is part of it now. and yeah, the FAQ says they βdonβt claim ownershipβ over anything and yeah, they give you that reassuring bullshit about how unlikely it is that the exact same sentence will be reconstructedβ
but thatβs not the point.
do you have an unusual way of constructing sentences? a metaphor you like to use? a writing tic that sets you apart from the rest? anything that gives you a unique writing voice?
feed your writing into an LLM, and the model has your voice now. the model can generate text that sounds like it was written by you and someone else can claim itβs theirs because they gave the model a prompt.
donβt feed the model.
2) the other reason is that sudowrite scraped a bunch of omegaverse fic without consent to build their model and thatβs a really shitty thing to do, because it means people werenβt given the chance to choose whether or not to feed the model.
donβt feed the model.
also this.
donβt feed the model.
