FAQs
Do you use A.I. for any text?
Yes we do, but we are very intentional about where we use it. We only use text A.I. for marketing purposes. None of the articles or stories on or from Screaming Eye Press use A.I. But, For marketing (SEO) purposes we have a few SEO pages written on the site with the help of A.I. Any page written on the site with the help of A.I. has a special author, Alfie Mildburg. So any article written with A.I. assistance will be “written by Alfie Mildburg”, and you can click here to see a list of the pages Alfie has assisted with.
Do you use A.I. for any Images?
Yes we do, but only because we are not competitant artists. We put out a lot of content, and in the world of the internet, content needs images. We do try to make sure that the image represents the story and is not a “featured peice of work unto itself”. That being said, we would prefer to use real art every chance we can. If you’re an artist and would like to help us, reach out! Whatcha waitin’ for?
What is “Reading Time” based on?
Oh, you noticed that you read faster than what we wrote down huh? Well that makes sense. Our reading time is based on 300 words a minute. According to several studies, the average reading speed for adults in the United States is around 200-300 words per minute (wpm). However, this can vary depending on factors such as the difficulty of the text, reading comprehension level, and individual reading habits. So hopfully, that answers why we choose 300 wpm as our benchline… ya smarty-pants.
What does “Public Domain” mean?
In the context of intellectual property, the term “public domain” refers to works that are not protected by copyright law and are freely available for use by anyone, without permission or payment. When a work is in the public domain, it means that the copyright on the work has expired or the author has intentionally waived their copyright, making it available for anyone to use, copy, distribute, and adapt without restriction.
