Years ago I was at Walgreens and plopped a bag of Depends and a box of baby wipes down at the register. Making small talk, the girl at the register asked how old my baby was. I pointed at the Depends and said both purchases were for me. She got really embarrassed. -
@randomanon Your stories belong in the AI section. This isn't a grey area. Any story that involves using an AI in any way to generate text, makes it an AI story. I don't really care if only a percentage of it is AI generated or if you change one or two words in the sentences that are created for you, it's still AI. You're not doing the writing in those sections. I agree with what Personalias said. It sounds like your relationship with the stories is that to someone commissioning a story, the only difference being that you are hands on in terms of requesting changes and edits and the commission is free. It feels like splitting hairs to quote the exact wording of what I wrote because I would think it is clear that the spirit of the rule says that your stories should be in the AI section. I haven't gone into specifics about what is or isn't allowed because, to be frank, there are always going to be edge cases. Now, as you start talking about inputs, outputs, LLMs... all of that stuff, it should be clear that the story that comes out belongs in the AI section. I can't write a rule for every single possible scenario, that is why it is generalised. If you or other people want to argue for different rules, you can do so, start a new thread and go for it. If there is a majority opinion on changing, adding or removing something I will take it into consideration. I'm sure others will tell you that I do my best to listen to what people want in the story section since it is so dear to me. If you send me a message with the stories that have AI involvement I can move them for you. My question is... You seem to have a good grasp of the English language, your spelling and grammar are fine, you mentioned editing the outputs of the AI. With all this in mind... Why are you using AI at all? It seems like you would be more than capable of writing without it. In fact, the way you talk about having to go back every other sentence to change things sounds like you're making the process of creating a story much harder than if you just typed it all out. -

Where in my response did I say it couldn't be similar? I'm talking about work and effort and craftsmanship. A class of 20 students can use Chat GPT to write an essay on the same topic and you can tweak it to get roughly 20 different papers on the same subject. They'll still all get Fs because they didn't do the task as required to make the required product. If I find someone, have them write a story for me, put it here and claim it as my own, I'm still plagiarizing whether it's similar to anything else that exists or not. I'm taking someone else's considerable effort and claiming it as my own effort. There's a reason why we have words like "manufactured", "customizable", "home made" "hand-crafted", and "artisanal" to describe products, and a story *is* a product. How something is created contributes to its value. Something that was manufactured by assembly line, generally speaking, costs less than something that was made by hand because it took whatever machine it came out of less effort to make and assemble the parts than if the same product was made by hand. The words "artisan", "artist", and "art" come from "ars": Latin for "skill" or "craft". The process and how it is made is a vital part of that skillset that makes it art. Machines, by definition, cannot be skilled because they (ironically enough) were created by skilled people to perform a particular task. But on their own, without human intervention and modification, they won't get any better at that task. The person who programs the 3-D printer is certainly skilled at programming; more skilled than I am at the very least. But they are not a sculptor. They are a programmer. If you want to say that programming is an art, there might be an argument to be made, but calling them a sculptor is mislabeling it plain and simple. And frankly, it is disrespectful to the sculptor who has poured countless hours of time and energy in learning how to work with all of the intricacies and limitations of their preferred medium to make something breathtaking and technically impressive. Story goes that a famous painter was eating in a restaurant, and a fan came in and asked if he could make a drawing for the fan. Just a lil' doodle. Nothing too fancy. So the painter uncapped his pen, scribbled something on his napkin and offered it to the fan for five-hundred dollars. "Five hundred dollars?!" Remarks the fair weather fan. "But that only took you thirty seconds!" "No," says the painter. "That took me thirty years because that's how long it took me to develop my talents to the level where strangers recognize and love my work to the point that they'll bother me at lunch for a doodle." I'm not talking about originality. I'm talking about effort, experience, skillset, credit, compensation, and categorization. -

WRT sissification, sorry, no spoilers. <wink> Regarding formula, a real baby has no choice, but then also doesn't know other flavors. Part of what I've been thinking is it's all consensual, but kept enjoyable. Since Mikey likes chocolate and strawberry as an adult, Mommy makes it for him as a baby. No real reason to push Mikey to drink something he doesn't necessarily enjoy. It may be 'more authentic', but if someone doesn't like it... I may be letting too much of my own choice creep in, but I've never liked actual formula. And way too many calories for me, I prefer to have 'breakfast drink', less fat and tastes better than plain milk. 😁 Oh, and glad you're enjoying the story. -
