Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

There is a very real legal argument to make about whether training AI with established works constitutes Fair Use under the law. That’s for the courts and Congress to decide.

But Meta pirated millions of books without paying. And that, my friends, is not up for debate. That’s several million crimes

We have specific words for employed writers: Screenwriter, Author, Copywriter, Journalist, Critic, Editorialist. But if you write, you are a writer. Don't let anyone tell you - or even tell yourself - that you aren't a real writer until you are paid or published. I'm here to tell you that you are.

Excellent advice. #writing
If you can't find the right word, put down the wrong one. Keeping your momentum while writing is more important than getting it right on the first pass. If you're worried about it sticking - BOLD the word & keep going. You'll notice those words right away while editing when you have time to process.

This holiday, bite into the werewolf apocalypse! 🐺🎄📚www.amazon.com/dp/B074CGQLSR

It's the dawn of the werewolf apocalypse. Terror sweeps L.A. Vicious Beasts rage through the streets. Nothing can stop them. Except, the Werewolf Whisperer... Maybe.

Look what you did! Together, we raised the funds to buy a demining vehicle to clear landmines from #Ukraine. This vehicle will save so many lives, and I'm so grateful for your support & willingness to band together to make the world better. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. @u24.gov.ua
