Chương 19: Announcement Post: Save Yourself from AI (Bonus Chapter Right After!)

Hello everyone! Thank you for reading this far into Swallow the Sun Herald of the Final Eclipse. As you probably know, we're in the middle of our RS run, which sadly means I am keenly aware of the RS slots that are being taken by fully created or heavily AI generated fictions. As a writer this is frankly frustrating, but that isn't the point. If Rising Stars is the main discovery tool on Royal Road, and it's suggesting AI, you deserve better.

Don't waste your precious reading time on slop churned out by the plagiarism machine. There are human stories out there to read, and you deserve art that was made by a human. You deserve art with intent. You deserve art with something to say. You deserve better than something someone threw into ChatGPT and never thought about again. Discounting the attention and opportunity this takes away from legitimate human writers, you just deserve better stories. So here: If discoverability on this site is suggesting AI slop.

Here are some alternatives: This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it. These stories are from authors I personally know. I have either beta-read or hand a hand in workshopping parts of many of them. These are human stories, by people with infinitely more to say than a machine could ever fathom.

Pursuit of Mana by Dragonian Definitely Not Evil Plans by Duncan Spice Reincarnated as a Brewer by Julian Merrow Sleight of Hand by Owlacrity Zero-Day Saint by Lilly Fox Nuclear Son by Scyzim Invictus Shakes by Mila Also Nobody saves the Princess by Me, I guess There, that should keep everyone reading for a while. Remember: An AI has nothing to say. An AI cannot say anything with its art. It is a waste of words and a waste of your brief time on this planet.

Art made by other humans is one of the most pure forms of connection we have, even if it's mostly just stats and aura farming.
