Ao3 No-Fandom Tag Update

[oceanmyth]

I just saw that Ao3 has managed to sort out their issues with non-fandom tags, and are now canonizing and making changes to preexisting tags - and I am so elated. There's so many minor tag tweaks that would be such an improvement for filtering purposes!

Personally, I'm most excited about the canonized AI related tags - being able to filter out AI generated work (even if it's not a required tag, and people will probably refuse to add it in case it means less eyes on their works) and support human creatives will be wonderful.

No, I mean, people weren't waiting for the canonical! These are all non-canonical tags, they still have dozens or hundreds of uses already:

ChatGPT, this was written with an ai, Written in collaboration with an AI, Written by AI, Written by an AI, Written by ChatGPT

And there are hundreds more 1-use tags that are different phrasings of the same idea.

"Mommy Kink" is on the list of concepts to work on canonizing, I know that much. Would be kinda funny if they time the release for next Women's History Month...
