At this point I’m convinced these detectors are looking for the usage of big words and high word counts, instead of actually looking for things like incorrect syntax, non-sequitur statements, suspiciously rapid topic changes, forgetting earlier parts of the paper to only reference things that happen in the previous sentence…
Too many of these “See, I knew you were cheating! This proves it!” Professors are pointing to “flowery language”, when that’s kind of the number one way to reach a word count requirement.
When it shouldn’t be that hard, I used to use ChatGPT to help edit stories I write (Fiction writer as a hobby), but then when I realized it kept pointing me to grammar mistakes that just didn’t exist, ones that it failed to elaborate on when pressed for details.
I then asked what exactly my story was about.
I was then given a massive essay that reeked of “I didn’t actually read this, but I’m going to string together random out of context terminology from your book like I’m a News Reporter from the 90’s pretending to know what this new anime fad is.” Some real “Cowboy Bepop at his computer” shit
The main point of conflict of the story wasn’t even mentioned. Just some nonsense about the cast “Learning about and exploring the Spirit World!” (The story was not about the afterlife at all, it was about a tribe that generations ago was cursed to only birth male children and how they worked with missionaries voluntarily due to requiring women from outside the tribe to “offer their services” in order to avoid extinction… It was a consensual thing for the record… This wasn’t mentioned in ChatGPT’s write up at all)
That’s when the illusion broke and I realized I wasn’t having MegaMan.EXE jack into my system to fight the baddies and save my story! I merely had an idiot who didn’t speak english as a writing partner, and I’ve never
I wish I hadn’t let that put me off writing more…
I was building to a bigger conflict where the tribe breaks the curse and gets their women back, they believe wives will just manifest from the ether… Instead the Fertility Goddess that cursed them was just going to reveal that their women were being born into male bodies, and just turn all who would have been born female to be given male bodies instead. So when the curse was broken half the tribe turned female creating a different kind of shock.
There was this set up that the main character was a warrior for the tribe who had a chauvinistic overly macho jackass for a rival… and the payoff was going to be that the lead character was going to be one of those “Women cursed with masculinity”, so when the curse is broken he becomes a woman and gets both courted by and bullied by the rival over it, who eventually learns that your close frenemy suddenly having a vagina is not a license to bang her, no matter what “TG Transformation Story Cliches” say about the matter…
Lot of
“Dahl’mrk, I swear if you replace my hut’s hunting idol with one of those fertility statuettes while I’m sleeping one more time, I’m going to shove both up your bumhole.”
Energy…

God I should really get back to it, I had only finished chapter one… and the mass gender-unbending doesn’t happen till chapter 3.
