Just learned one of the stories I featured in a past MicroVerse spec flash roundup was not written by a human, but rather generated by an LLM. The story won a HUGE cash prize. Goddammit. Removing it from my rec list and website. Seriously, friends, we have to step up our game.
Wouldn't it be nice if Strange Horizons could continue paying 10c/word next year??
Strange Horizons@strangehorizons.bsky.social · 3w ago📣 3 days left and we're $210 away from 9c/word! 📣 Our first stretch goal towards keeping our fiction rates the same is almost here! (That's also $5210 away from 10c/word! 👀)
🧵 I DON'T think it's malice, cowardice, or the tendency towards slop that sunk AI's claws into our markets. The problem ISN'T that published fiction doesn't hit hard or doesnt tell good stories.
Dorian Dawes@doriandawes.bsky.social · 3w agoHi, SFF Apex, Bona Books, Agita Publishing, And all the others who have gotten tricked by AI, Let's have a nice talk.
Some thoughts on this. There's an old saying that springs to mind: the future is already here, but it's unevenly distributed. * awareness of AI tells in fiction. How widespread was this knowledge two years ago? It's still not as widespread as it needs to be within slushpiles

A typically excellent piece by @thomasha.bsky.social. Psychological thriller with simulacra, doppelgangers (William Wilson!), and states & powers desiring (implausibly, it's just fiction, of course) to devour and consume everything. Great stuff. clarkesworldmagazine.com/ha_07_26/

We have decided to remove a short story from Issue 153 of Apex Magazine. After meeting with our reading and editorial teams, we'd like to share with you what happened, and importantly, how we plan to move forward from here. Thank you for sticking with us. 💜👽
I still really love this story. I only wish it still weren’t so relevant.
