NaNoWriMo Says Condemning AI Is ‘Classist and Ableist’

Daniel José Older, a lead story architect for Star Wars: The High Republic and author of multiple series including Outlaw Saints, posted his resignation from the NaNoWriMo writers board

I agree it’s dumb to allow AI in a writing contest but there’s been such an uproar from high profile writers on X. You can’t complain about how bad AI is for the planet and how it’s just a grift when you’re posting from Elon’s hellsite lmao it literally has a LLM built in and it’s ran by an actual supervillain. you’re directly supporting that if you use X
