Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
Sidenote: it's irritating how many threads about AI there's already, and that they all converge. It looks like the same conversation is in multiple places and it gets disjointed.
I have pretty important question: how many people care about AI in writing? Do we have some inkling?
The labeled...
Okay.
It's just that from the general tone it sounded more like "I don't care because I agree they deserve it" than simple "I don't care".
Just explaining my take. No smoke.
At the start of ChatGPT craze I've read a short story "Writer looks for readers" or similar title.
The premise was...
You should joke completely, since both people using and not-using AI would have to just transcribe the words from the screen onto paper.
Oh, and I'm sure there's an AI for this.
That likely means that problem is unsolvable or nobody is willing to solve it. I would be for trying non-invasive proposals, but it's unlikely they will work.
The problem may solve itself or get worse, if the LLMs' writing will get more human-like.
Is LLMs writing getting better or did it hit...
I think you ignore some posts because they align with what you think. The "hostile attacks" is response to calling people using AI to write "trash", "lazy", "Karens" etc.
True or not, it is a hostile attack. Lets not get offended about calling spade a spade.
Witch hunts is justified worry...
Yes, it's an AI-neutral thread.
No, if you want an anti-AI thread, name it explicitly so. I'm not going to adjust to some unstated, assumed rules like "only negative opinions about AI use are acceptable".
The thread is called: "People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?"...
This isn't an "anti-AI thread".
If you want an "anti-AI thread" create it, name it explicitly "anti-AI thread" or "only ranting about use of AI" and you will have one.
I'm loath to advise that, as there are already multiple similar threads about AI, but it is better than getting offended that...
Wouldn't that be beautiful?
There is divide between people who are for a pill that would make you physically fit and the ones who abhor idea and claim that without training this isn't "true".
It's in part due to signaling, in part self-value derived from belonging to certain group, and surely...
I don't see a problem with this, although it would be toothless warning in absence of the way to verify the AI use.
With necro (and I think that's a stupid rule) it is immediately obvious when the rule was broken.
Also, I don't see a problem and it would be an empty gesture.
I don't think...
Yes, but that's bit different, you are talking more about utility.
In art, for example, there are people who care that the art is old. If they would discover it is "perfect modern forgery" they would feel tricked and wouldn't enjoy it as much anymore - despite nothing really changing.
People...
I'm against indulging neuroticism of small portion of users, no matter what they claim is the reason of their neuroticism.
Unfortunately, we don't live in the perfect world. We also shouldn't be forced to die, alas both AI detection without fail-positives and immortality is impossible for now...
It's unreasonable to demand "witch hunts" or to create some commission that will decide whether the fic used or didn't use AI.
Maybe people who jump at shadows are the problem, and we shouldn't excuse them or indulge them? Hmmm. Yes.
Some people just refuse to acknowledge that you cannot...
I detect it through reading, it is kinda obvious after a while, the telltales are there.
Honestly, I don't care that much, most of AI-using fiction goes into the category of slop: forgetful, unengaging, inoffensive. The overall verbose style of writing that AI pushes doesn't help, even if it...
It's currently unfeasible.
If it's so valueless, why the need for the label? It should be obvious.
It's a common saying that 90%, or 95%, or 99% of everything is shit. And yet, there's no need to label things as "bad art". There's no fear that the sheer volume of bad art will make it...
