Okay, so is the target really “people who use AI tools while others assume they did not,” rather than simply “people who use AI tools”?
Even that distinction feels dangerous because there is already so much loud cultural noise insisting that AI use automatically produces garbage. But LOL, maybe I’m just a dummy, because a large majority of books are already kind of garbage. And I’m not judging garbage too harshly. I want to write books.
But it seems to me that the issue may be tied more closely to the assumptions people bring to the work. These are meaningfully different situations:
an author says, “I did not use AI,” when they did;
a reader assumes an author did not use AI, even though the author never made that claim; and
a reader says, “This is good,” then learns that the author may have used AI and decides, “Actually, this is bad. Very, very bad.”
Who is the jerk in each of these scenarios? Or is my jerk detector simply malfunctioning?
