NaNoWriMo Organizers Said It Was Classist and Ableist to Condemn AI. All Hell Broke Loose
Briefly

Morris elaborated on the issues she has with the use of AI in creative work: The platforms are unethical, the tech scrapes content from published authors without paying royalties or fees, and it robs writers of the opportunity to find their own voice and learn from mistakes.
C. L. Polk criticized NaNo's stance, asserting that it implies disabled people can't create art, and labeled the notion that rejecting AI is ableist as 'a pile of horseshit'.
Longtime participants of NaNo are feeling betrayed, voicing frustrations over ongoing issues the organization has ignored and the alienation they have felt from it.
Morris, upon learning of NaNo's statement regarding AI, felt defeated and emphasized that creative people are exhausting themselves fighting battles on multiple fronts.
