The easiest would be Cropping
As it is the closest analogue to Pigeon milk/ Crop milk
Fun fact: Male Emperor Penguins are known to produce it.

Alright, sharing this from my story ideas/notes scratchpad:
A pastor giving a children's sermon on vestments asks, "Why do you think I wear this collar?"
One kid answered, "Because it kills ticks and fleas up to 30 days?"

Come now My time has come again as it always will
as it always must. Til eternity comes and creation fits upon a needle’s head

Forty One Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty Seven. It is I
The speaker of numbers that ends in odd!
For to be odd means to not be even.
From time came space
From Space came Time
 

The spelling checker and grammar checker in most higher-end word processing programs are “AI” in the barest and crudest sense of the phrase.  They can help you produce better writing—and they can also foul things up exponentially.  Even in translation, AI is at best an imperfect crutch, and can produce some real dumpster-fire-funny results.
In athletic competition or exhibition, performance-enhancing drugs and robots are banned, because we don’t want to see “fakery.”  Likewise in non-athletic competition, marked card decks, chess computers, and the like are also banned.  In the creative arts it should be no different.  AI is to me no more and no less than the “automated attendant” provided by companies trying to avoid providing good goods and serviceable services even after you’ve already paid for them.
 

Oh that’s much less impressive so its not even AI its a copypaste machine.

Yeah, I understand that concern for sure. I’ve thought about it in regards to humans doing it. I know some creators aren’t fans of fanfic of their work when written by a human being. I can imagine the same would be true of AI, but the problem with an AI is that you’re going to have no one to necessarily go after. But I’m not necessarily as concerned about fanfic of my original work. I would prefer to have my own version on TV, which is where my original work is intended to go, but I’d be okay with having someone make fanfic based on the TV show.

Fair enough. I on the other hand would like to be asked first before anyone uses my original work in any way, including writing fan fic for it. Well, unless It was one of the authors whose work I read compulsively, but I’m pretty sure none of them even know I exist.  

There’s discussion referenced in that article about the not insignificant concerns revolving around copyright violations and content attribution for the various AIs, and I have to say, those are my concerns as well. I shudder to think of some AI scraping one of my darker original pieces and creating some sort of fan fic around what I wrote, with no compensation to me as the creator. I reserve ALL rights to my original works, and I’m really not joking about that. I wouldn’t be the first author to spin a short work into a novel, and I have no intentions of winding up in a legal wrangle with someone who used an AI program that lifted my work, and who has decided they now OWN my work.

Oh that’s much less impressive so its not even AI its a copypaste machine.

Technology is certainly progressing faster rate now than it did.
 
I think if nothing else there should be a discussion to the powers that be if only to prevent someone from spamming ai-gen stories. Only cause I know at least someone will do that.

Hmm, maybe we ought to make AI-generated-reviews a FEATURE?  Author wants such a review, press the button, ask ChatGPT for its opinion on your story?  (Secretly, we’ve hot wired it to troll/flame mode.)

Ah, the early morning poking of the undercaffeinated dragon…   
If I believe reviews are being spammed, the reviewer is subject to being banned. At the moment, no anonymous reviews are permitted, as a security measure, so in order to spam those reviews, you will need an archive account. I would be very happy to have that last another year or so.

So, I was looking for an old fic that I used to read fairly often because I enjoyed it.

The fic disappeared and I didn’t have access to it anymore, so I had to find it in the web archive.

Managed to find it but it got me curious about the fandom again. It’s a Wonder Woman fanfic and I’m more familiar with the character than the actual show it was a based on. In part I went down the rabbit hole learning about it because the only TV show I’m aware of featuring Wonder Woman was the Linda Carter one. Apparently that was what it was based on, because I found out one of the characters in the fic was only in the show for a couple episodes. As a result, I found out that the fanfic was based on those episodes.

Which got me thinking, what have you learned about a fanfic you like to read that you didn’t know before?
