Very happy to know that my Abandoned America trademark has been coopted by not one but two different AI slop "creators", both based out of Europe to circumvent my legal protections.

@AbandonedAmerica
Geeez! We’re all fair game unless we have a multimillion dollar legal team on retainer -

Geeez! We’re all fair game unless we have a multimillion dollar legal team on retainer@Nerde that's exactly what they're counting on. Flood the zone, make it impossible to pursue legally, and then everything is AI garbage.

Here's exhibit A: a "German" "guy" who somehow is releasing 3 entire text-based books in two weeks. His author photo and cover "art" are exactly the same AI style of the supposedly Scottish guy who started an Abandoned America channel on Youtube

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H3FVR5PJ?binding=paperback&qid=1792454998&sr=1-4&ref=dbs_dp_awt_sb_pc_tpbkWell, nice knowing you all, I guess. The work I spent 20 years creating will drown in a sea of AI impostors using models that pilfered my writing/photos to create their garbage. I don't have the money to hire lawyers to chase phantoms. I'm sure this is coming soon to every small artist with a brand

When your favorite websites or YouTube channels or whatever go offline, hide behind a paywall, or just stop producing because all their public work is stolen with AI, the Internet is going to be such a miserable and shabby place - devoid of the only spark that made it truly magical years ago.

Fuck. I am so sorry. I know there are open web projects working on combatting shit like this, but it’s too little, too slow, for those refusing to use AI to fight it.

@AbandonedAmerica JFC, that really sucks. I'm so sorry. Fuck AI and anyone propping up this fraudulent garbage.

@AbandonedAmerica Who will photograph its remains? Looted data centers; unlit strands of fiber optic cables dandling from IXPs walls...

@johannab @AbandonedAmerica It isn't only web projects. A book produced by a local org in my community is being sold through bookshop.org at $300 and up. I'm sure it's filled with AI text.

@AchillesTang thank you. It's pretty dispiriting. But hey, when the whole world is currently an ocean of scams, what's one more I guess

@johannab I honestly don't see a way of winning without destroying the existing models and setting guardrails for new ones and we all know that's not going to happen
-
@AbandonedAmerica @johannab Yep. There's no way they got any part of the text.
