The more I hear about AI-generated content and other crap that is posted online these days, I wonder if I should just start reading books instead, maybe even learn to play on a musical instrument and leave virtual world altogether.
Plagiarized books entirely written by an AI are nor far-fetched. Get ready for a shitty reality.
Why would AI need to write a plagiarized book? Isn't that just a knock off?
Because writing a knockoff book takes time and effort, and getting an AI to do it does not.
The same question applies to many fields. Why get AI to write a plagiarized tweet or Reddit comment? It's a lot less effort than a book, yet both platforms are plagued with bot comments.
There is already books written entirely by AI too, AI is litterly getting everywhere
I'm sure it's also writing the music too.
And some forum comments.
Beep boop
And some forum comments.
Good thing concert tickets aren't overpriced and only available via resale, so I can see humans perform human music.
Keep informed so you don't buy AI-written books. Better know what's going on instead of letting the world happen to you imo.
