Having your own personal blog is honestly quite a nice change of pace compared to Reddit. I could put a funny GIF of George Bush getting hit by a shoe on here and the worse case scenario is that no one even notices.
You put that on a big subreddit and you get your eyes gouged out and a heap of political discourse underneath your post.
oh I wasn’t aware it was feeding the ai. I’ve inserted hundreds of fics into chatgpt for their continuation or for a different plot within the same context just for fun and out of curiosity… but I’ve never posted any of them…
Indeed, anything that is given to AI it can use later to draw from. That’s why it doesn’t matter if you post them or not as it has now access to those writers’ texts without their permission.

for the love of everything that is good and nice DON’T DO THIS
Please do not do this! I’m happy to talk about ‘what ifs’ or 'what happens next’ even if I can’t write a whole fic but PLEASE don’t put any fics into AI!
#i’m so exhausted#fic being scraped off ao3 by bots is bad enough#readers actually FEEDING fic into AI is breaking my actual heart#DO NOT EVER FEED FIC INTO AI WITHOUT THE AUTHOR’S PERMISSION#99.999% of authors are THRILLED to discuss AUs for their fics#the 'what ifs’#the 'missing scenes’#the possible alternate outcomes#JUST ASK THE AUTHOR TO CHAT WITH YOU ABOUT THIS#most of us would cry with joy if you gave us the chance to ramble about our fics!#DO NOT FEED MY FICS TO AI PLEASE I BEG YOU

ANYTHING you put into an AI program WILL teach the program and the program WILL use it. So it’s not just harmless fun just for you. AI exploits everything you give to it.
