Yes, we do allow authors of premium stories to use AI, since it's just another tool in the box, like spelling or grammar checkers.



LoraDayton:
Grammar and spellcheck already existed long before mass-market access to AI.

AI isn't a grammar tool. It can only function by scraping existing writing created by other humans. Even if you clean it up after, it is still theft. It's not reinterpretation or meta or research. AI is theft of work. AI cannot exist without a reserve of existing material. That's literally how it works.

You're absolutely right that there is no shortcut to sincere creativity, but it's mutually exclusive to AI generated writing.

Battybattybattybat:
There's a bot that scrapes these very profiles and stories (though I believe it can only access the first page) on this very site. Our words are being used for AI guys, we should feel honored. 😘

Morbido:
I want to assure you all that I don't steal stories or plots from the writers on this site. I solely rely on my imagination for the narratives, occasionally drawing inspiration from stories I've read over the years on this site. Moreover, I use AI text generators, though it's quite a challenge to make them as weirdo as our community when it comes to the theme of weight gain.

This is a passion project for me, something I wouldn't pursue if I weren't genuinely passionate about this genre of storytelling.

Battybattybattybat:
Yes, yes you do because AI scrapes this site and many others. It scrapes published books. It scrapes poetry, and articles, and essays all originally written by a human being. That's one of the major reasons why writers and artists don't like it.

Letters And Numbers:
And also -- ok, yes, all art is influenced by what came before it to some degree, sure. A writer in 2024 will be influenced by books they read and fold that into their own writing in one way or another. However, doing that requires you to actually read the books! Reading a bunch of Hemingway and then writing a story using Hemingway's voice can be an interesting project. Telling software to write in the style of Hemingway without having read or understood the source material is maybe a neat trick, but I think that's all you can say about it.

Munchies:
Friendly reminder that you can plagiarize art. There is thriving market for it that existed long before generative ai came into the scene.

Now, to be clear, I am not making any aspersions about OP. I don't know him. He seems like a decent enough person who doesn't understand how generative ai works.

And that's fine. Not everyone is in the know about that. Doesn't make you a bad person.

However, generative ai isn't the same thing as drawing inspiration.

When something inspires you, you take elements of the original and make it your own. Sometimes it's clear what your inspiration is, but the end product is transformed by putting your own flare on things.

Generative ai is incapable of doing this. Instead, it cobbles together bits and pieces of things using predictive algorithms. This is why it often repeats itself or spits out nonsense.

It's also terrible at nonfiction because it cannot discern what sources are useful and what sources or not. It also has the habit of hallucinating data. Why? Because it writes thing based on how others have written things before and spits it out with the algorithm.


Sports Illustrated got away with it for a while, which is pretty amazing.

Dear Community,

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the diverse opinions and engaging discussions regarding the use of AI in crafting stories.

Utilizing AI has proven to be immensely helpful, especially as a non-native English writer (I'm Italian). This tool aids in refining my work, making the creative process more accessible. I eagerly await your feedback to understand if my stories hold value for you. While they may seem satisfactory to me in isolation, your opinions are invaluable in shaping the worth of my creations within our community.

I am committed to using the tool in a progressively more refined manner, seeking to balance its assistance with my personal touch and fantasy. However, the true measure of success lies in your collective feedback. I understand that personal opinions vary, and I'm patient as I await your thoughts, recognizing that it takes time to form a consensus.

Behind each story lies hours of dedicated work from my perspective. I invested time during my Christmas holidays to bring these stories to fruition.

I hope you enjoy the experience here, and if these stories don't align with your preferences, I completely understand. The intention behind this endeavor was to breathe life into the fantasies of those who struggle to express them in written form, creating a space for shared imagination, including my own, which I find challenging to articulate due to the language barrier.

If you have the time and inclination, I would greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to explore the stories. Your valuable feedback could make a significant difference in enhancing the overall experience.

Warm regards,
Morbido


I guess my advice, and take it or leave it, would be that instead of making and posting 10 (some of them lengthy) stories in a few weeks and flooding the New Stories section, pace yourself. Pick one and work on it, maybe with an English speaking editor or beta reader. The syntax and writing conventions are all over the place in your stories, which I expect from bot-written stuff, but it makes them feel rushed and confusing. One of the hallmarks of AI writing is that it repeats and summarizes itself a lot. This can be fixed by editing, but that takes time. Pick one and try to perfect it instead of rushing to generate new content. Not to mention that another author trying to get some eyes on their writing has to compete with 10 of your stories clogging things up. That’s just my take.

Besides that, though, I’d love to know what software you use so I can look at it!

What do you collect?

Wrestlemania13:
Souls. Nah, just records.


Souls are easier to take with you when you move.

What do you collect?

Letters And Numbers:
Records. So many heavy, stinky records. Help.

Munchies:
Sends you air freshener for your records.

I helped. 😊


I wish it was that easy. Picture a half ton of 70 year old cardboard and bitter, disintegrating ink. It’s a thing.

You’re acting like anyone here somehow knows your wife better than you do. Honestly, the whole thing sounds like a bad larp.

Anyone having trouble

Natatat:
I published two new premium stories and it just still says pending on them. Anyone know why? I’m disappointed


I think premium stories need to be reviewed, and with the holiday I would expect more to happen beginning tomorrow

Some problems

GrowingLoveHandles:
I’ve noticed that some stories are not getting read much because they cannot be found on the author’s profile or through a story search using the author’s name.

Examples:

Bellyblubber only has one story listed but if you go to that story st the bottom it has another story by her listed.

Secret_fa has only 3 stories listed on her profile, but go to those stories and you will discover at least 4 more stories that aren’t accessible through her profile or by a story author search.

Check this out, and you will see. These authors’ inadvertently hidden stories have much fewer views because of this.

Authors, check your own profiles, and see if you find similar problems.


Oh yeah, that’s super weird. Just confirmed it.
