Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
So writers can use AI tools if they want to and the company is okay with it, but cannot be forced to work with it, and if they do then the company can't get out of paying writers by saying that part of the material was written by an LLM because anything AI written can't be counted as source material. Am I understanding this correctly?
I've heard from writers saying they like using AI language models for idea generators or other things and ones that have experience being forced to use them and finding that it is more effort to correct the output into something usable than just rewriting from scratch. So if I'm understanding this right this sounds like it should keep either kind of writer happy and protected.
Yeah the ai tools are legitimately useful, I use them for exploring research ideas and rephrasing search queries in foreign languages
They are often wrong on numbers and facts but occasionally they spit something interesting out that can be followed up on
