The founder of Longshot Island has created a new website/magazine to publish work created with the use of A.I., alongside conventional writing. You will be paid for successful submissions, and he is interested to explore this new genre. This is a contentious area indeed, and sure to spark much debate into the future.
Here is what Daniel has to say about ArtSore.
This is pretty exciting, I think. I’ve been lured out of retirement to start a totally new kind of magazine!
AI is pretty controversial in its youth. Just as men and women compete in different events in the Olympics, so people and AI should not be in the same category.
In ArtSore magazine, you let us know when you submit if your work was assisted by AI or was a purely human only effort. Each month we’ll pick one from each category and publish the two wins online. At the end of the year we’d like to do an anthology of the best works!
We pay one cent per word as we want this to be about art, not money. (I’ve run the highest paying magazines in the world and can tell you more money does not make better art.) If things go well, we’ll pay more later. Nobody is losing money to a machine as a person gets paid either way, A) AI assisted or B) human-only.
AI has a distinct style. But beauty is still in the eye of the beholder. You have to know if the AI generated stories are good before you submit. Running off a thousand stories overnight means you have to read all those stories, no easy task, just ask any publisher.
We’d love to see your work!
Find us at ArtSore dot com. We really appreciate it.
