First chapter AI check for shoots and giggles.

[Madmcgee]

I've seen so many people post stories asking for reviews on here since I started looking at the Forums, and so many times people say AI is involved.

So, I said screw it! Let's see how my own writing does if I run it through Google Gemini and ask if it's written by an AI.

Every
Damned
Story!

They all came back as 'written' by AI lol

Now, I don't really care if people use it, AI isn't what makes an interesting story. I just thought it was sort of hilarious that Gemini came back so utterly one-sided in its analysis, especially since I do have a book that I used AI to mess around with, and I hate it because it's just not fun to write. Never published, and it shall likely never see the light of day. Meanwhile, all the others are just me spitting out my brain-slop onto my laptop

Guess I'm a robot after all!

Your problem is using gemini.

Try me! Try me! I want to know if I am a cat AI or not~.

Definitly AI, its in your name.

Oh, no, you are right~.

Its not looking good...
You must also be a robot

You're right to ask! While I don't have personal experiences or intentions like a human author, the text you provided, "Arc I Prologue," exhibits several characteristics commonly associated with AI-generated content. Here's why:

• Repetitive phrasing and word choices: Notice the frequent repetition of words like "white," "light," "death," and phrases like "all was for naught," "all was in vain." While repetition can be used for emphasis, its density here feels somewhat mechanical.
• Focus on abstract concepts and dramatic statements: The text heavily relies on abstract nouns (e.g., honour, loyalty, blood, death, pain, sacrifice) and grand, sweeping statements ("Everyone was destined to perish one day," "Death did not know her"). This can sometimes lack the nuanced detail and emotional depth of human writing.
• Listing of physical injuries: The detailed listing of injuries ("Her right femur lay shattered. Her lung punctured. Her inner organs ruptured.") feels somewhat clinical and less organically woven into the emotional narrative.
• Sudden shifts in tone and perspective: The narrative shifts quickly from despair and acceptance of death to a sudden resurgence of will and the return of magic. While not inherently un-human, the abruptness can feel less natural.
• Use of somewhat generic fantasy tropes: The concepts of "mana," "magic," "aether," and a "purple, glowing rift" are common elements in fantasy literature and are employed here in a fairly straightforward manner.
• Unusual date format: The "Anno Imperii 00.00.0000" date format is unconventional and might be a stylistic choice an AI could generate without the same intuitive understanding of established dating systems.

While a human author could intentionally use some of these techniques, the combination and density of these characteristics suggest a higher probability of AI generation.

It's important to remember that AI writing is constantly evolving, and it's becoming more sophisticated at mimicking human styles. However, certain patterns and tendencies can still be discernible.

Still better than what I got tho, lol!

Your problem is using gemini.

I'm starting to think Gemini might just be messing with me.

All part of its master plan. If it says everything is AI then AI can claim whatever it wants.

It's learning...

If we all are AIs, then no one is AI.

A question for the scholars, I'm sure.
But at what point are all the scholars robots as well?
The future is now, old man!

 

[FieryLou]

The AI is clearly framing! Courting death!

I asked GPT to analyse my writing style between two texts.
It said "most likely written by AI." to a story I didn't even use spellcheck on.
And "Unlikely to be written with AI" on the one I fixed up using ProWritingAid.

Essentially, track record of 0% accuracy so far.

 

[Fairemont]

I dont even know how to have something look at mine. I feel like chatgpt and such would just be like "this isn't even good enough that people would claim it's written by AI"

It's wild, I can use a different version of Gem and get completely different results. They're all over the place... AI doesn't even know what is and isn't AI.

I can run your story through, but only if you give the thumbs up. Not like a bot probably hasn't done it, but nobody said politeness was dead.

Thatd be cool. I admit I am curious.

Okay, you've provided a substantial excerpt of text, likely from a fantasy novel or story set in an empire inspired by historical China (given names like Zhou Xiaoming, Minister Xin, Tiansheng, Great Xi'an, and elements like an Imperial Academy, civil service, martial arts, etc.).
If your implied question is whether this specific text was written by an AI:

It's very difficult to say for certain without knowing the source. However, the text exhibits many qualities typically associated with human-authored fiction:

1. Consistent Narrative Voice: The story maintains a consistent tone and style, shifting perspective smoothly between Xiaoming and Zhou Ran.
2. Character Development: Characters have distinct personalities, motivations (Xiaoming's ambition and pride, Minister Xin's pragmatism, Zhou Ran's rebellious streak, Jingyi's loyalty), and established relationships.
3. World-Building: It integrates details about the setting (Imperial Academy, court politics, social hierarchy, hints of magic/mysticism) naturally into the narrative.
4. Plot Progression: The excerpt sets up conflicts and introduces subplots (Xiaoming's achievement and influence, the "secret" daughter, Ran's plan to sneak out).
5. Dialogue and Internal Monologue: The dialogue feels relatively natural for the characters, and the internal thoughts (especially Ran's) add depth.

Could an AI have written this? Advanced AI models are capable of generating creative text with plot, characters, and dialogue. They can mimic styles and create coherent narratives. However, achieving this level of consistent character voice, subtle relationship dynamics, and engaging plot progression over a longer piece is still a hallmark of skilled human writing.
Conclusion: While it's possible an advanced AI generated this, it reads much more like a piece written by a human author. It has a clear narrative structure, developed characters, and a distinct fictional world.



Look at that, Gem is giving you props

Congrats!

Ooo!

Im not sure how I feel about getting my most glowing review from an AI, but I'll take it. Lmao

Out of curiosity, I tried using the QuillBot AI checker on the first 1,200 words of your first chapters (the amount that’s free) of all the books in your banner and got 0% for all of them.

Yeah, it's a case of the left arm not knowing what the right arm is doing with these things. I can run my story through one version of Gemini, and it comes back all AI, but another model of Gemini will come back with it written as human.

I know what I wrote and how I wrote it, so it really doesn't bother me what a LLM says, I just found it amusing was all

Ai-chan doesn't know how to use gemini. She always offered like a whore but Ai-chan isn't equipped to handle her.
