I am a little shocked at the lack of solidarity I see between artists working in different mediums wrt genAI.
Musicians who would never use it to make music use it to make cover art
Graphic artists reach for it to make music over their videos
Writers use it to illustrate their articles
And, considering software development an art, many use it to create web sites or apps to host their art.
None of this is necessary. All of this is harmful to the other artists.
Collaborate ffs.
Stop it.

And yeah, I've contributed more than my share of clop, but if you are looking for good non-clop stories check out:
The Dresden Fillies series - Dresden Files crossover
White by Criminal - short horror story
Changeling Space Program - a riff on the Kerbal Space Program game
Celestia vs Garble - pure comedy in Monty Python style
It Sleeps Beneath Foal Mountain - Lovecraftian horror
Parlous - some of the best uses of archaic words and phrases I've ever read.
None of these are by me. Just some of my favorites
