Readers should be able to know when and how AI is being used in a work even if it’s “only” for grammar or visual edits. Different readers have different boundaries around AI and I think they deserve the information necessary to make an informed decision about whether they’re comfortable engaging with that type of content.

I’m not saying everyone has to agree on where that line should be. I just think readers shouldn’t have to find out afterward. Being transparent about the role AI plays in your creative process allows people to make their own choices, while also respecting those who prefer to support work created entirely through human creative processes.

I also understand that if you’re already comfortable using AI as part of your process, it’s not realistic for me or anyone else to simply tell you to stop and expect you to do so. Ultimately, that’s your decision, and I’m not trying to dictate how you create. My point is that once AI is already part of the process, I think transparency becomes even more important. You can make your own decision about whether you continue using it and readers can make their own decision about whether they’re comfortable supporting or engaging with work created using it. Even if it's as simple as grammar rectification. I think both things can coexist.

Of course they can, and I think I’ve been pretty transparent about it since I first addressed the rumors and explained exactly what I used ai for. I know that by addressing it I probably brought even more attention to it, but I wanted to be honest and set the record straight rather than have people assume things about my writing that weren’t true.

It’s also not something I’ve been doing throughout all of my stories. I used it for grammar with one story and openly talked about it because, at the time, I genuinely didn’t think it would be an issue. Once I saw that people had strong opinions about it, I decided to address it instead of hiding it.

And of course, with that knowledge, everyone is free to decide whether they still want to read my stories or not. I’ve explained that it doesn’t create my ideas, write my scenes or dialogues, or change the story itself. I used it to catch little grammatical mistakes I tend to overlook even after rereading something countless times myself. I would often feel pressured to release something, and I never wanted to do that when I felt like it still needed more attention and time. But then I’d go back to it later and realize there were still mistakes I somehow overlooked. They might’ve been minor but they bothered me as hell and made me feel like I should’ve spent even more time going over everything before putting it out.

Okay, I can't find the original poll so let me ask again 😭 (either way, it looks like the update is coming this week!)

Hey, I'm good thank you for asking! I hope you're doing well too 🤍 thank you so much for the kind words, I'm glad you're loving the story and loved the sneak-peek too 🤍

When AI is brought into creative and artistic fields, I do think it can diminish the value of the human creative process especially when someone begins relying on it for things that they could otherwise create themselves or collaborate with another person to create. If you’re an artist but you’re relying on AI to generate the artwork for you,wrote for you then what role is your own artistic ability playing? Even if it’s something as simple as generating an image of a particular scene from a story, I would much rather use my own imagination to picture that scene than have AI generate an interpretation for me.

At the same time I think it’s important to acknowledge that we realistically can’t escape AI anymore. It’s already integrated into so much of the technology we use every single day. Google services, Android features, Apple Intelligence and so many other tools rely on AI in one form or another on our phones, laptops and computers. That’s also why schools colleges and universities are increasingly teaching people about AI. It’s becoming a part of the world they’re going to work in, and people need to understand how to use these tools responsibly because many workplaces and computer systems around the world are already incorporating AI.

And I’m not against AI being used in ways that genuinely help people. I think there are plenty of good and practical uses for it. My concern is when we start treating it as a necessity in areas that have traditionally relied on human creativity.

When it comes to writing bringing AI into an area that is fundamentally built around someone’s imagination can feel like it diminishes the value of the writer’s own work. AI can help you with grammar but I don’t think it can replicate the same depth, emotion or individuality that comes from a writer developing something through their own imagination and experiences. There’s something special about knowing that a person sat down and created an entire story from their own mind.

And honestly if you write BTS fanfiction and the vast majority of your readers are from this fandom, why not look within the fandom for people who can help you? There are so many talented people who create beautiful artworks. You could commission an artist to create something for a particular chapter or scene instead of using AI to generate it if you really really want to give readers an idea of a particular scene or as a part of the teaser. You’re already benefiting from a community of people who are interested in and engaging with your work so why not support another creative person within that same community? And some people are also paying to read for example on ko-if.

Even if you’re not particularly active in the fandom or don’t listen to the music as much anymore, that doesn’t mean you can’t appreciate the incredible artists within it. You can still discover their work, commission them, credit them and give them a platform. To me that feels so much more meaningful than generating an AI image amd using it.

BTS have also asked fans multiple times not to use AI to recreate or manipulate their likenesses. If we genuinely respect them and the boundaries they’ve communicated to us, I think it’s worth asking ourselves why convenience should override those requests simply because AI is convenient. And if BTS themselves aren’t using AI as a replacement for the human creative process in their music and artistry, why should writers writing fanfictions treat it as a necessity when creating fanfiction inspired by them?

I honestly saddened me to see that you had posted an AI-generated image. I saw that post on Twitter, and it genuinely shocked me because you’re a writer I’ve admired for years. I’ve been reading your work since day one, so finding out that you use AI in your creative process was honestly upsetting for me. I think that’s why it affected me more than it might have if it were someone whose work I wasn’t familiar with. And when I found out that you also use AI for grammar correction, I honestly didn’t know how to feel. I can understand that English isn’t your first language, and I can see why using AI to correct grammar might feel convenient or make the writing process easier for you. I’m not assuming that you’re just putting your work into AI and blindly accepting whatever it gives you. I’m sure you read your work carefully, line by line, and make your own decisions about what stays and what changes. But even knowing that, it still made me sad.

Especially because there are human alternatives. If you have friends who read your work, fellow writers in the community, or even a beta reader who would be willing to proofread for you, why not ask them for help? You could even build that kind of relationship within the writing community and help each other with your work. It would allow you to support another person’s creativity while also getting the help you need. I think that’s ultimately what makes me sad about AI being introduced into creative spaces. It’s not just about the technology itself; it’s about the human connections and creativity that we potentially miss out on when we choose the most convenient option

That’s how I feel I’m so sorry if I upset you.

For sure, that’s what I love about writing and reading the most. I’ve always said that it’s such a mind-blowing feeling and experience to know that something you’ve written is being imagined and interpreted differently in everyone’s mind. From my point of view, I do understand that time moves forward, just like technology does. I remember some of my family members describing their time without the internet, and I remember how resentful and perhaps even a little offended they felt when social media came around, or even phones with touch screens. Of course, it’s a completely different scenario and I don’t want to compare the two, it’s more just me thinking out loud about how quickly the world evolves and how we adapt to new things.

I love the human brain. I love how creative and incredible one can be if they put their mind and effort for it, whether it's writing, art or anything.

And when it comes to writing, bringing AI into an area which used to rely on human creativity feels like it diminishes the value of the writer's own work. AI can give us more ideas and suggestions for the plot but I don't think it will give same depth that comes from a writer's imagination.

Every scene, conversation, and every tiny action links to the authenticity of the character. Like a charecter's personality, habits, flaws, how they react, everything. The writer knows them in a deeply personal way because they've imagined them in their own mind first and brought them into existence through writing. And I don't think AI can replicate that personal connection. That's what I really think.

And in my opinion I don't see a problem with using them for grammatical mistakes. That speeds up the process and saves time....And if AI was really unavoidable for me, I'd prefer using them as helping tools than something that replaces human qualities.

And I really love your sexyyy brain and the way you write. That's one thing I was really hooked on in your stories because even with those gaps between each chapter, I'm still able to feel the character's emotions and the story vibe every time, because you write them in a way that makes the readers feel the emotions of the character in such a deep way...

Lots of loveee 💋💗

You’re absolutely right. I talked about this more in the other comments, but I actually never cared about ai before or used it when it first became a thing. Only recently I started seeing it more as a helping tool, but never something that should replace us or our own creativity. I thought using it for something like grammar couldn’t be that bad and there was genuinely no ill intention behind it.

And I think when I said I used it for grammar, some people automatically imagined me putting my writing into ai, letting it fix/rewrite everything and calling it a day, which is really not what I do 😭 I still sit down and reread every paragraph over and over again, change words, rewrite sentences, look for different ways to describe things and spend so much time trying to make everything sound the way I want it to. English isn’t my first language, so I saw the grammar check as exactly that - a final check for mistakes I might’ve missed after reading the same paragraphs twenty times 😭

I also think some of the changes in my writing style were automatically connected to ai when in reality, I’ve been actively trying to evolve as a writer. I don’t publish that often, and a year is actually a lot of time to change and learn. I want my writing to change. I don’t want to keep describing the same things in the same ways or writing the same dialogues forever. I want to experiment, learn new ways to express things and hopefully become better with every story/chapter I write.

So I completely agree with you that ai should never replace the actual imagination and connection a writer has with their characters. I’ve always seen it as a tool that could help with little things rather than something that should think or create for me. I’m learning now that even that conversation is much more complicated than I originally thought.

In my head, it almost felt better than using their actual pictures because instead of taking a real photo/moment of them and forcing it into the fictional context of MH, I could create something that only represented the fictional scene I had in my head. I didn’t really look at it beyond that.

Some people disagreed and explained why they don’t think their faces should be used with ai at all, and I’m actually glad they did because there are obviously sides to this that I haven’t really thought about.

I know ai in general is a very controversial topic and I genuinely wanna know where you guys stand on it. I’ve already seen all sorts of reactions even to me mentioning that I use it to help with grammar mistakes, which made me realize people draw the line with ai in very different places. Meanwhile ai is becoming almost impossible to avoid because it’s being built into basically every app we use. And what I find kinda odd is that at my uni we’re literally encouraged to learn how to work with ai for some reason.

So I’d actually love to hear different opinions on this. Let’s debate, but please don’t fight 😭 I wanna hear different perspectives and understand why people feel the way they do about it.

It’s always been kind of a dream of mine to create a long story, not even just that, a universe where there is a depth. It requires a lot of details, almost describing daily life in the story. I’m forever grateful to mutual help! I much prefer long stories than short ones 🌟

Spoiler under the cut 👑

16.3k+ so far! I don’t think the ending is giving ✨the ending✨ but at the same time I’m like let’s just release it and continue the next chapter with the scenes that should’ve been in this one! Because I wrote unplanned scenes (yes again 🙈) some of the actually planned ones didn’t make it into this one, but will be in the next one! ☝️

What do you guys think? Just release it or write the scenes?

That’s a lot of reading then 🫪

Just to make it clear, ai does not write stories for me. I don't know what's up with all the accusations writers are getting in general, but in my case I write my own stories. You guys are free to ask me, but please do not accuse me of using ai to write my stories 🙏

sending you a virtual hug and kisses 💋🫂

omg you remembered??? 🥹 you're amazing!!! it never fails to amaze me how you guys remember, not just my birthday but things in general. wow!!! thank you so much! 💓 love you!
