AI and LLM have earned a bad reputation in creative circles because of the push to eliminate creative jobs. Companies that want to build tools for creative communities should know this and not lean on AI-hype marketing.

That being said, in my opinion, Storywise looks fishy as heck. It's probably a few tech bros using Azure's DIY GPT. They pinky promise not to use your manuscripts in training data, but there's no contact info on their website, including in the ToS. So when they inevitably break their promise or have a data breach, how do you sue them?

I would think that problem is simpler than that. If you have any legal problem with them, AI or otherwise, how do you have your lawyer contact them?

It's worse then that: Rich white techbros stole our images, music, texts etc. to replace us with mindless machines.
