    OP is. It’s not clear that the author she blocked is. “Using AI” doesn’t mean “having AI write for you”. Plenty of authors just use it as a research aide or a sounding board. Plus, it’s a great way to learn which phrases to never use again.

      I’ve upvoted for having the bravery to speak the true possibilities in here, but I would say the odds are kinda strongly against what you suggest.

        I’m writing something for for the first time doing exactly these things. It hasn’t written one word for me, but it has suggested to me what words could maybe be better words if I can think of those words. (Editing advice, preliminary only, nothing meant to be final)

        I really don’t understand why they don’t market it for these things instead of just writing for you.

        Appreciate it. Also in fairness, I’ve definitely run into published books written by supposed specialists that are obviously 200 pages of AI prose (probably based on a 10 page essay).
