AI Using Your Writing To Train.

AI using your writing to train.

Hey writerly friends! Here's your warning that Google is making updates to terms and service allowing them to mine your data and train AI with it. It's focused on emails right now but Google docs facing a similar change is on the horizon.

Keep your eyes peeled for terms of service updates because you've already accepted future changes once you hit accept the first time. Unpublished novels do not have the same copyright protections as published novels and lawsuits are much more difficult to win. I would highly recommend anyone with a large amount of writing in Google docs start removing it from that platform.

If you don't want your writing used to train AI (and to be clear you won't be paid for it) then it's time to start looking at alternatives to Google Docs.

Some thoughts on alternatives

Microsoft Word - unlikely to implement AI training

Microsoft Word is possibly the safest bet at the moment. The Office suite makes most of it's money from corporate licensing. That depends heavily on strict privacy rules. The risk to their reputation is too high to even attempt it on just the personal version of Word. If you want to be very very cautious, get Word Professional as there is ZERO chance of it being used for AI scraping.

$159.99 USD one time purchase OR subscription model for $69.99 per year which comes with all of the Microsoft Office suite and significantly more cloud storage.

Microsoft Word Professional is $439.99 USD. You really don't need it for writing.

Scrivener - unlikely to implement AI training

Scrivener would probably not survive the kind of controversy AI scraping would cause as their customers are exclusively writers.

$59.99 USD one time purchase per platform (if you switched from windows to mac you would need to repurchase.)

Libre Office - read all the terms and conditions or don't risk it.

Libre Office has an AI tool. There are no stories circulating about them scraping user's data but they're not near as big as Google and may not have drawn enough attention yet.

Free! (Which unfortunately makes data scraping more likely.)

Also don't forget:

Platforms like Ao3, Wattpad, Smashwords and possibly even Tumblr are all being targeted by AI companies for data scraping. In fact OpenAI are being sued for doing just that.

Be careful where you post your writing.

That's all folks!

hey hey

so i remembered the wicked twisters were actually still alive(minus shoka and neku) during the long game, so danny might actually not notice rindo, fret and nagi. but he'll still totally notice beat, neku, shiki, shoka, and probably rhyme as dead-adjacent. right?

so i have a headcanon/au thing about neku while he was in shinjuku. he was able to use any psych, to the surprise of the people in charge, which, alongside surviving a whole month, gained him the reputation of a legendary player. but what if the pins just don't exist in shinjuku? the noise there aren't stable enough to drop any. no pins, no psychs.

so how was he supposed to defend himself against the Static Noise(they're made up of static and are pretty mindless)? he had no psychs, and not even a player pin. instead, he's able to use the powers of any psych he'd ever used before without pins. the powers are part of him, and this ability even follows him into the shibuya ug.

now how would this be integrated into a dp and twewy crossover?

this man has died twice, and was forced into an erased city. it still exists obviously so it had to have gone somewhere that isn't connected to earth.

it got plopped in its own negative space in the infinite realms, full of the shades of its citizens and one twice dead guy, filling him with ectoplasm. except, the city is in its own space, disconnected enough to not truly be part of the infinite realms.

neku and shinjuku are still connected to earth enough they can come back. but he was still twice dead in the ghost zone.

neku comes back to shibuya a halfa.

he's had three years to adjust to powers, so no one notices, not even him. he's never gone invisible or intangible because he never really needed to(and if it ever happened on accident, he just chocked it up to shinjuku being weird), and there are psychs that let you hover. he's basically been in purgatory, why wouldn't he come back strange? danny notices.

neku has an existential crisis over still being dead, if only halfway.

i wonder if anyone has ever made a danny phantom and the world ends with you crossover?

both series focus around death and how it affects people(moreso fanon in dp's case but i digress), so i think the concept of the infinite realms and the underground and real ground, plus the implied other layers(grounds?), could fit together nicely. infinite realms are called that for a reason after all, and a big reason why danny phantom (the concept) can crossover with so much other media.

and yes, obviously shibuya and illinois(?) are really seriously far apart, so how could the characters possibly interact? simple; the fentons go yokai hunting for the summer.

jack and maddie for some reason deduce yokai are real(debatable) and must be from the ghost zone. so they go on a vacation to japan to hunt them down, dragging their kids with them because it is a vacation after all.

through whatever circumstances, danny and jazz meet and interact with the twewy characters. danny definitely notes them as "dead-adjacent", while jazz clocks them as all needing serious therapy, which like "Yeah! We know! Our trauma is Special™!". but she has experience with dealing with her brother and his "death trauma"(which he vehemently denies having). also i think it would be funny if danny was able to bounce back and forth between the rg and ug, actively bullying reapers.

ellie could come too! she'd probably love making joshua's life hell (you go girl)

whether or not the drs fenton find actual yokai? who knows. danny probably.

Fanart Of One Of My Favorite Fanfictions "The Tie That Binds" (or As My Mind Has It Filed As: "evil Ventus

fanart of one of my favorite fanfictions "The Tie that Binds" (or as my mind has it filed as: "evil ventus and evil terra gaslight aqua") by @arcawolf

i love all of the story, but the way it ends is my favorite because it's such an emotional scene as well as a bit on the morbid side like "holy shit what did they do" especially because of the pov chosen

i realize making a meme about it doesn't really convey how much i love it, but yeah oh well

anyway i'm kissing everyone who has memory issues regardless of what they stem from. i don't think anyone gets just how frustrating it is to Not Know things or have pieces of your life missing from your memory unless they experience and the way we're treated for our lack of memory is real shitty! ngl! so. kissing you all even though i'm a dyke.
