I AM NOT A ROBOT...

 

AI algorithms continue to poke their non-human,

data-scraping beaks into the very human world

of books and writing.

 

But the fight-back is also making progress.

 

It's now six months since the Human Authored project

was launched here in the UK by the Society of Authors.

The aim is to list and verify published books which are

fully 100% the work of human authors.

 

Right now, only books written by Society of Authors

members can be listed (and only for editions published

from 2020 onwards) but there are future plans to also

open the database to non-members. So far, a small

step maybe in the face of all the AI slop but an

important one nonetheless. And yes, in case you're

wondering, Inspector Jacobson makes the cut.

 

Go, humans!
