"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

If I'm wrong, if you think my comment is stupid then why don't you prove it?
I'll happily edit my own comment with sources if you'd like. I think it's common knowledge that most writers don't break out on their first published work though and that even afterwards most authors gain most of their revenue from backlist and back in print titles overall. Actually, I have the sources ready now if you'd like them.
My point was not to say this is a good thing but to point out that there is absolutely an incentive to cheat this way.
