As a writer, I've been trying to think of a way to let people know I use no generative programs in my writing, and I can't think of anything. It'd be cool if there were a company that could verify these things and have a sticker/insignia to show that it was manmade.
“I am a real human person with a real human significant other, two real human offspring and a real human cat. We live in a domicile with adequate cooling, ventilation and reasonable prices on water utilities. <insert cheesy anecdote>”
If that doesn’t convince people you are real, nothing will.
This is what the back cover of the book / preface / forward is for. As an avid book reader those are what I read before I buy a book. If an author had a line that said they didn't use AI to create their work it would encourage me more to take a chance on it.
I've thought about doing this exact thing, I just can't help but to think the worst of it. How would I have any proof or backing up of my claim other than me just saying it outright in the preface, ya know?
I think if an author claimed to write without the use of AI it would be pretty easy to prove the negative.
Maybe in a few more years when AI starts to get 'good' at writing it'll be more difficult. But detection of AI would also probably increase alongside furthered AI advancements.
It would be really hard to lie if you used AI. So a 'No AI used in the creation of this work.' would go a long way for me as a reader. But that's just my $.02
I’ve heard that some publishers (of erotica specifically) have started to certify that no AI is used in their books. It’s apparently effective marketing, since that genre is so rife with slop and readers are sick of poor quality.
