       I am trying & trying to articulate what a bad take it is for a writer to say "I can't pay an artist" but it leaves me seething on such a fundamental level that I just. can't. do it.

       Fellow writers need to understand the extent to which their online content has been used to program "AI." The "artificial" intelligence is YOU. The "artificial" intelligence is also the artist. We are natural allies in this struggle. The same technology cheapens some of our deepest creative urges.

       I think folks need to understand that within a number of years, AI-generated "content" will be the microplastic of our online ecosystem.

       @mutinyc if the author paid someone on fiverr to make the cover then there's basically no difference already.
