I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.

Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art

Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos

Writers use it to illustrate their articles

And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.

None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.

Collaborate ffs.

Stop it.

      And yeah, I’ve contributed more than my share of clop, but if you are looking for good non-clop stories check out:

      The Dresden Fillies series - Dresden Files crossover

      White by Crimnar - short horror story

      Changeling Space Program - a riff on the Kerbal Space Program game

      Celestia vs Garble - pure comedy in Monty Python style

      It Sleeps Beneath Foal Mountain - Lovecraftian horror

      Parlous - some of the best uses of archaic words and phrases I’ve ever read.

      None of these are by me. Just some of my favorites
