Ian Rose<p>Have you published a book? Here's how to check if Meta stole it for their dumb AI.

Kerr Avonsen (she/her)<p>How do I justify my assertion that AI art is plagiarism rather than "inspired by" other art?</p><p>If I made a piece of art which was inspired by another artist, I would freely acknowledge that. AI art programs don't do that. They don't say where any of their "ideas" or "inspirations" came from, they don't acknowledge the original artists at all. That's lying by omission.<br>Such deception makes it clearly plagiarism.

I am currently writing a #cento, i.e. a #textadventure where every sentence is taken from another text adventure. The biggest work of #plagiarism ever written 😉

This hinges on dumping the full text for 5000+ games (hooray for stable, documented formats/engines!), then having a tool to sift through them. There's also lots of game design constraints that come with it. It's super fun!

I'm hoping to post more about it as I ramp up in the next few months 😀
