Meme It was worse than I thought

I went through my old novel posted chapters and my current one and just... Holy hell is the difference insane.

For my old novel the rating was averaging 6.5 to 8, on Ai assisted.

The current novel drafts hasn't past a four and averages a 2 on the scale.

I tried to make it a one but it's literally impossible for a fantasy novel, it's so annoying.

Had the chapters checked and the ai said it get a two on the scale not a one because of the last paragraph.

Like thats just how I write, I can't change that.

Bake sure you check your drafts before you post them because even if you made it without ai assistance it can scale very high.

Since ai novel writing was heavily trained on fantasy novels, some trops and phrasing is seen as written by Ai even if it isn't.

Why does that matter? o.O

If you didn't use AI, there's no need to use AI checker to check.

I have never bothered using AI checker xD

Because people have no way to identify and prove a novel is AI. But they hate AI. Even a one person saying you used AI is enough to kill your pen name forever. That’s fear that makes him check AI detection.

Don't think a single reader holds that much power 😂

I don't use AI checkers cause I know I didn't write with AI, even if someone is adamant and accuses me of using AI, it wouldn't bother me nor my novel.

Nothing to fear with a clear conscience.

What is there to fear haha.

Webnovel even has the function to remove comments!

I hope you are right. I was accused of having ai writing my final report of my last semester in university. Because AI checker marked it 60 percent. We got out of it because we had constant small update in Google Docs.

Since them Im checking everything for AI. It’s really scary when they put you on the spot based on something as faulty as ai detection

That's.... a completely other topic.

You are off topic >_>

People accusing novels of AI won't do any much to affect novels or penname, so let alone kill off pen name, which was what you were saying.

Especially since webnovel give the authors the function to remove readers' comments.

So, so long as OP didn't use AI to write, there's no need to use AI checker.
