Writers Are Being Accused of Using AI — No Matter What They Do
In this video essay, I talk about how AI accusations are affecting authors (especially indie authors) and how some authors are using AI, while others are fighting against it. I discuss the romantasy author allegedly suing a reader over a defamatory book review, as well as how authors are changing the way they write books to avoid "looking like AI". I also explore why neurodivergent writers (particularly autistic authors) are more likely to face AI accusations, and ask whether it's ethical and acceptable to use AI as a creative writing tool. Additionally, I share my personal experience of being told my work "sounds AI-generated", and question whether we're actually as good as we think we are at detecting AI writing. Have you ever been accused of using AI in your writing? Does it matter to you if writers use AI? Let me know in the comments.
