I’m so very confused by all these people getting caught using AI in their novels, their book reviews, their professionally published pieces. Writing is genuinely NOT a good career choice. Like if you don’t enjoy the act of writing — if you don’t need to do it for some tormented reason like the rest of us — go do literally anything else. Is the $800-$1000 you’re being paid by the NYT book review really worth that much to you? If you want fame just go be an influencer! Enjoy your life!
