I can speculate on a number of reasons but it would be super cool if arts journalism wasn't so hollowed out and underfunded that we had people asking this stuff

re: Turnstile tickets being way for more expensive in Toronto than most U.S. dates. I would love it if we had a more robust music press that not only reported on it but also asked why.

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.
Hi, thanks for posting! We do appreciate you thinking of us even though we have to moderate.

Our stance on all AI generated content (Images, Video, Voiceovers, and whatever else LLM based AI gets up to in the future):

At best, they are approximations of street fighter characters as the AI has no clue what it is trying to create. Because of this, there is no street fighter content so they are not allowed. (rule 1)

Also, they aren't allowed per our source rule. As AI sources cannot be tracked, we must assume that they use uncredited sources in the learning data. (rule 5)

Finally, AI images, video, text, and voiceovers are barely any different than posting a screenshot of a google search. The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam (rule 3).

Because of these reasons, AI art and other AI content is not allowed.

If you would like to contact the moderators about this removal, you can do so here.

Aside from the ChatGPT-like prose and my extreme skepticism that a book club of a thousand Singaporeans would be interested in my book about Canadian music of the 2000s, the biggest red flag is the overly effusive praise. It’s almost convincing but sorry I don’t think the response was electric!

My publisher warned all their authors about these book club scams, and I have gotten a few of them now that are very similar, but I’m curious about the endgame. How precisely does this lead to the scammers extracting money or useful data from me? I want to ask

This just came up in my Apple Music autoplay after listening to Soul Glo. This is the band’s only song and they have just five monthly listeners on Spotify. Mythical autoplay pull.
A song called “Muscle Dump” by a band called Old Tits. The artwork is a white square with the word Fuck and a drawing of wrinkly breasts crudely sketched using something like Microsoft Paint or the Apple photo editor

Agreed, young writers need to be able to write kinda-shitty stuff for very good editors. Increasingly it feels like the main options are either prestige outlets that only take established writers or quick-churn sites that hit publish on unedited slop. We need more of the missing middle!

We are rapidly losing the outlets where new writers can learn to shape a voice, where they can cultivate skills beyond quick news hits and PR with the guidance and mentorship of strong editors and the benefit of a trusted name, and it’s such a loss for writers and readers alike.

Seeing people say AI is a tool that helps "working class people become writers" and its such bullshit. The process of learning and skill sharpening is labour, and its telling that there is work to be glamorized (being perceived as a Writer) and labour beneath people (learning to write)
