I cannot see how any serious and self-respecting can encourage, support and legitimise this platform and the dangerous individual behind it any longer. For what it’s worth, I’m off. Hope to pick up with a lot of you elsewhere. Shine on, you crazy diamonds x

I honestly cannot understand why publishers are even considering licencing content to AI companies. No amount of cash they're likely offering should be enough for you to lose control over the thing that makes your products most valuable: creative originality.
