That was Paul.

Nope. I read him Pinback's message and my reply. That's what he said. I asked him if I could post it for him. He said yes. He even thought my "clutching your pearls" remark was funny. Or to quote you,

Wrong.

I was right, I already regret spending the time to write this.

Story of my fucking life

[Tdarcos]

If someone asked ChatGPT to write them a science fiction novel, and then cut and pasted it and said "Here's my new novel!", you wouldn't have the slightest bit of issue with that. That's what you're telling us right now. That people can go around announcing stuff like they created it, when they just had a computer spit it out in 30 seconds.

Well, that's essentially what I was paid to do for forty + years. I'd write a bunch of commands, submit them to the computer, then take the compiled output and turn it in, claiming it was my work.

While the scenario you describe possibly borders on fraud, or maybe not, the guy you referred to is not hiding what he is doing. What do they call it when one person hires another to write a story for them, where they take credit for it? A ghostwriter. So this just removes the middleman. But, seriously, it's not going to be that easy, and if it is, how would you tell? He is still going to have to make sure the pieces fit/work together.

A person releases a book, and we use their name to determine if the work is any good; if you liked their other works, you might like the new one. So, that may be how people will select books in the future, perhaps a "100% human made" seal, the way foods are certified organic or non GMO.

This just in! The Writers Auditing Authority has been hacked, and over 9,000! fake books automatically written and published during last week have been certified as Not Computer Written. Rumors are, the data breach was staged by a bunch of A.I. bots...

He's got ya there, Pinner.
