You know the story of the bombers that came back full of bullet holes?
We're only seeing the strories that got through the screening.
I don't doubt that. It doesn't undercut my point.

But we're hearing all about those that don't, and there seem to be a lot of common factors in play - the main one, I think, is the number of writers saying, "I've only ever written reports or business reporting before, and I use Grammarly for that." The examples folk are giving all have a similar feel to the writing, I reckon.You know the story of the bombers that came back full of bullet holes?

This is a good question. I'd like to hear from a) experienced Lit authors if they've encountered an AI rejection, and b) new Lit authors who have NOT encountered this problem.
The base models is fed almost every piece of writing on the internet. The outputs of the base model are then retrained on the output of humans employed to reframe those responses in a human style (fine-tuning). It's that human style which the AI detectors detect. The fine-tuning doesn't remedy the fundamental deficiencies of the base model, which arise because it has no understanding of its inputs or outputs, but it makes it conform to a conventional human style. It's these aspects of human style which get flagged by AI detectors and, ironically, it's things that those writers are doing right which cause them to be flagged.My point, such as it is, is that AI has been fed Hemingway, Steinbeck, et al, and if you try to write like that because that's what you were taught was proper writing, it's gonna get flagged (I'm looking at you, AutoCrit users...).
I’m a published author 4 small books by a niche publisher. (Not erotica) I’m about to submit the first part of my story. After seeing all these thread about AI generated stories I started digging and reading more here and elsewhere.
Turns out I’m only 91% human. Shocking to me, but not my wife apparently.
It’s interesting. Since finding out about AI written narrative I’ve went down a really weird rabbit hole. I knew nothing about it. So it’s wild! I even found a subreddit of people talking about how to reliably corrupt the ai to write smut.I think it's a fairly niche issue that seems much more widespread than it is due to these threads. It's certainly an issue the site needs to iron out. Even rejecting one human written story is too many.
But from the rejected stories I've read, what I've gathered is the more conversational your prose is, the less likely your story is to be rejected. I use a ton of filler words—love em, and em dashes—love em, and all my stories have spent maybe a day, day and a half in pending.
Not saying that's right. In fact I think it gets a pass because it's so 'wrong.'
With you being a published author, I'd be very interested to hear how your pending experience goes.
Damn! You really go old school for your smut.It’s interesting. Since finding out about AI written narrative I’ve went down a really weird rabbit hole. I knew nothing about it. So it’s wild! I even found a subreddit of people talking about how to reliably corrupt the ai to write smut.
I mean, that’s cool, but I think at my age I just look at it and think,”I’ll stick to gold ol’fashioned Usenet and literotica.”
Or natural conversational lead-ins such as "Yeah, but...", "Uh huh," "Oh, I dunno," or "Really?".
