I'd be fascinated to see some solid examples from @societyofauthors.bsky.social of "ethical use". Because unless they've found a way of using it that doesn't involve harming the planet, stealing from creatives or churning yet more unreliable slop into the world, I think my ethics differ from theirs.

I'm an SoA member and I don't support this. There is no such thing as ethical use of gen-AI, and the SoA should be fighting our corner on this. I earn little enough as it is without contributing to a body that would make such a pledge, so unless there's a re-think I won't be reneweing my membership.

As a traditionalist, I think I'd rather be killed by the plague than AI robots.

it’s because if they drank from glasses, you would notice if the level went back up when they cut in a shot non-sequentially. (it’s also so you can’t see what they’re drinking) so it’s thinking about how to set it all up to be “a radio panel show you can watch” not “a tv show you can listen to”

Easier said than done? There's no excuse for the BBC not to have more massive mainstream comedies.
