Geraldine says
Can we use ai like grammerly to correct our grammatical errors, add punctuation and refine our poems or stories?
Richard says
Yes, but if AI detectors identify your work as over a 80% chance of being AI, we will reject your entry. Many of our previous entries were identified as 100% AI. So just keep it in mind. I believe editing software is far different than just generating dozens of AI entries.
Sally says
What about the 6 word horror results? Any word on the winning entry yet?
TVB says
Good for you! I’m so glad you’re able to tell which writers used AI. I do NOT want AI writing to become the norm. Now I’m off to look at the cheating entry, if it’s still here, or his other work, to see if i could tell. How do you know?
