Believe author of Sympathy Tower Tokyo admitted to (and is being praised for) her use of AI
A little note: I will only add authors who admitted to using AI, accidentally revealed it (eg prompt left in text) or used it for promo or cover art. I won’t add books where it is merely suspected because what we are NOT going to do is start a witch hunt!
really appreciate this list and that you’re not just working off assumptions here!
thank you for making this list! I usually can tell when something was done with ai but it's good to have a list to check
these are good to know, so that i can never read their work. fuck ai.
