I'm just gonna say: it somewhat baffles me that people who are understandably skeptical of opaque LLMs as legitimate sources of information will suddenly go full on "the computer KNOWS" when they are using opaque tools to "detect" AI. The computer does not know.

❤️ Gillian Green, publisher at Tor Bramble, told The Bookseller: “HM Wolfe has confirmed that Daggermouth was written entirely without AI. We stand behind our author, and we do not recognise third-party AI detection tools as a fair or reliable measure of authenticity when used on their own.”

I haven't read Daggermouth and I haven't even read the weird article about it because I find strange investigations based on ~analyzing~ the text to be... Questionable. But I don't like the fact that the self-appointed AI police are proceeding with such reckless ignorance and unhinged confidence.

I think current genAI is, for the most part, an anti-social attack on culture and society. And I'm gonna need y'all to stop making that position look ridiculous by turning yourselves into an over-correcting anti-social attack on culture & society.

Yeah I had to go outside to weed but I think this is also a very important aspect of this. It's always the racism. bsky.app/profile/haun...

Also, how DEEPLY STRANGE AND MYSTERIOUS that it was *this* particular author who was targeted for it. I can't imagine why she of all romantasy authors would be hypercriticised and suspected. What possible characteristic might she have that woud lead people to justify their own wariness. a MYSTERY.

Sadly, that was the first thing I thought of when I saw the author's photo. A lot of our society are seriously determined to persecute black women. ☹️
