Ha!

I got to read Hound of the Baskervilles for class when I was 11, and as I recall that was one of the last books that made for fun reading. Everything else was so depressing

Yep yep yep

It says something a bit different: "While Gerald said the agency initially decided not to run the manuscript through an AI-detection tool, instead basing the decision on conversations with the author" The author says they didn't get a chance to discuss in depth, not that they never discussed it.

(and he also says he didn't use an AI detector to do it)

I didn't see it as grumpy!!! But thanks for checking

Not in so many words, but it's that paragraph that gave me this impression: "After an editor raised concerns over potential AI use, however, after a process of attempting to validate the manuscript, Gerald made the decision to pull the novel from sale and cut ties with the author"

ooooh these are awesome Mind if I steal the idea for my anxious friends?

It sounds like they tried to do some edits with the author, and the author wasn't capable of doing them?

I mean what's the expertise here? I only accept advice from people who've undergone the entire process personally

Good morning!

During the school year I feed the cats when I get up at 6:15. It's the holidays and they start meowing at 6:10 every single day

Happy birthday!!

I just don't understand how people can stare at this and not see it's profoundly wrong. Like I don't always catch ai stuff, k1 is the expert, but this is obv and painful

Oh he's fine! He didn't have a return train but I don't think the wildfires were anywhere near where he was

Sorry it was difficult but that thread is amazing (and now I'm off to reread the book)

Oh, I did try searching for the right email address, they made very sure I couldn't find it.

Yeah I've sent an enail, it's a small company so their support is only in business days 9 to 5 Let's see how that goes

Oh yeah I know why it exists and it makes sense from a company point of view, I'm just annoyed by having to deal with it (I think "mentally ill" is a bit of an unfair dig though, most mentally ill people don't contact customer support with an easy to solve issue)

(I know this isn't most people but as the customer I keep being annoyed by the effort I need to put in to justify my needs. If I give you my money can you trust me when I say I need help pls?)
