Let's meet the starting contributors of EXQUISITE UNDEAD! First up: Juniper Lake Fitzgerald, @ardentgrove.bsky.social , author of THE MODERN MYTHOS ANOMALY and The Fifth Yanai series. EXQUISITE UNDEAED launches on Kickstarter April 1! https://tinyurl.com/exquisite-undead

My name is in this book. I had half my backlist stolen by Anthropic, but because my books aren’t registered for copyright in the US (despite the fact that grant of copyright is AUTOMATIC in the U.K.) I was not eligible for the Anthropic settlement. I have received no compensation.

Almost 10,000 authors have come together to publish an empty book protesting the theft of books by tech companies to train AI models. Titled Don’t Steal This Book, it is empty of text except the names of the authors involved.. 🧵

Next up is Josie Jaffrey, @josiejaffrey.bsky.social , who writes a delightful array of fantasy and paranormal romance, including MAY DAY and the QuickSilver series. She's also one of the editors of Indie Bites! EXQUISITE UNDEAD launches on Kickstarter April 1! https://tinyurl.com/exquisite-undead

Does anyone have a way of using Google to search in your iPhone browser without getting AI results? I used to be able to put in a swear word to circumvent it, but when I do that now I just get a lecture from AI on being ‘more respectful’ - as if that isn’t the height of hypocrisy.
