Also, before and while all this was going on, the quality of the AI's output has been steadily dropping to the point where NovelAI.net now generates what's in many ways better writing. That's GPT-J-6B, to be clear. A 6-billion-parameter model is producing better output than a 300 billion parameter model, because of what I can only assume to be sheer incompetence on AI Dungeon's part. I've also used the raw GPT-3 API, and it does better at writing than either. In other words: Doing nothing would have been better than whatever they've been doing.
