Funny that the the guy who was like “Black Swan is not influenced by Perfect Blue” after trying to obtain the rights and meeting the director would be really into a plagiarism machine.

If any single techbro pushing genAI had 1% of the incredible artists (incl writers, film-makers, game devs, etc) in their life that I do, they'd never ever put their talents and energy towards making machines that steal from them to spit out soulless garbage facsimiles of creativity.

When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.
