That genre is already dead in some respects, because its main publishers (Royal Guard, Atheon, Podium) all use AI for editing and have no policy against AI use by authors — and worst of all, the readers are semiliterate gamers who think it’s impossible to be sure if AI was used, meaning that subreddits and other forums dedicated to promoting these works have explicit rules against mentioning AI.

I’m not kidding.

And? Did Crichton write the Pitt? No, because he’s dead. Did they use his characters? No, because his greedy estate (whose very existence makes no sense) wanted too much money.

These legal shenanigans are all part of the commodification of art by capitalist parasites, which is why, for instance, Tolkien’s work still hasn’t entered the public domain, despite being almost a century old.

Again, this isn’t about WB. It’s about art and copyright.

This is so true it hurts.

The same farcical judicial system that banned abortion and gave the president immunity from crimes. I don’t even have to assume they were bribed, just dumb af.

The criteria they gave are vague aspects of all emergency rooms, as any experienced medical doctor can attest.

Here’s the description for the top 10 litRPG novels available right now:

young man is integrated into another world, after death or apocalypse, and gets new powers with which to fight monsters and, after growing in strength, some overarching enemy.

If this description is copyrighted, the genre dies.

How is that “cheeky”? If the agreement is upheld for The Pitt, then WB is effectively barred from making an emergency room medical show ever. Which is ridiculous.

Dumbest of lawsuits. Apparently we aren’t allowed to make good medical tv shows because someone did it once decades ago.
