Take a Break (one of the bigger magazines) is replacing all of its short story writers with AI. Easy to dismiss a throwaway lifestyle magazine but this is a canary in a very dangerous coalmine.

Nautical horror and god-body horror are rich genres and this is my love letter to them all. It’s a furious rebellion against deathlessness, against the urge to sacrifice other lives to extend your own in all the ways we do that. I’m proud of the book. It’s weird, fully on its own terms & grim fun
Did not expect this Taiwanese pineapple cake to have modernist poetry on the back (But also a poem about everything being fat)

That guy Maks@callmesipo.bsky.social · 3mo agoWith disgust I learned Olga Tokarczuk uses AI to help with writing her latest novel - article in Polish, my translation of relevant bit in posts below mycompanypolska.pl/artykul/olga...
the thing about this is partly that it’s such a massive own goal for Granta — they didn’t select the stories, all they needed to say was that they were urgently discussing the issue with the commonwealth short story prize. but saying that they put it in claude, claude said it was AI??? what???
