okay okay okay last leriexoxo post i promise, but a friend sent me this and it's just too fucking funny not to share. i unblocked them, but they'd already blocked me, which is more than fair. what's hilarious though is they'd made a long post about me, without having the balls to actually tag me or message me directly.
ngl, i haven't read all of this because i've read all their excuses before. but what i can say is that i wasn't one of the anons that sent them death threats. because not only am i not twelve, but because if i had, you'd know it was me. because i'm not a coward who hides behind anon 😘 xoxo *
anyways if you're interested and she's blocked you, here are my buddy's screengrabs. enjoy.
call me lazy, but i only scanned this. if they'd messaged me or tagged me properly i would've read it, but they didn't, so i haven't. again, the problem i have with ai is that it literally rips off other people's work. oh, plus the whole it's killing the planet thing.
the bit that did catch my eye was when they talk about the prompt they forgot to take out. they said the prompt they use is "You're a professional editor, take my draft and correct all the mistakes and clean it up for me."
here's the thing though. this is the original screenshot from @seo--changbin's call out post
that is not an editing prompt. that is a generative prompt. no more needs to be said.
this isn't some kind of call to arms. it's important to call out ai and make people aware of it's negative impact, but don't go spewing random hate. i personally chose to call this user a talentless thieving coward, because as far as i'm concerned that's an accurate description of their behaviour. was it nice of me? no. am i going to apologise for it? also no. i might've done, if it weren't for the delightful anon message they sent me. really, if it wasn't for that message, none of this would've come up on my blog at all. but such is life.
ANYWAYS. i imagine my lovely regular readers are getting bored of this drama, so i'll return to my regular content of smut and trauma.
like i said in response to the 'anon' - though after this they might actually be an anon and not leriexoxo theirself, considering they posted all this without messaging me directly - i don't care that i don't get loads of engagement.
i write for me, and the others like me. those of us who are damaged, who struggle with guilt and shame and the dark shit that comes from our pasts. and also for those who just like dark smut. you don't have to have gone through shit to enjoy it. this is a safe space for us.
a safe, ai free space. okay okay, i promise that's the last time i'll mention it.
