I hope Guinzburg's experience was exceptional. Seems like I'm one of the few who doesn't use Chat GPT or other AI. BTW, on my main browser, udm14.com is mu default search engine.

Has James Aura let AI critique his writings? How many books of his can AI list?

That Robert Burns poem doesn't make it into many literature courses.

Yep, I use that link too.
I don't use AI for writing.
I have run tests on CoPilot, Chat GPT and Gemini for my books.
Initially, none of them knew about them. But eventually CoPilot and Gemini recognized them all.
Initially Gemini hallucinated on their plots, making stuff up. But last time I checked they all were
mostly running the published book blurbs as opposed to fake stuff.
I'm in a writing group where some of the writers use AI programs for proofreading, and they say they do a pretty good job, catching things like punctuation, typos, etc. I don't know anyone who confesses to using
it for actual writing, though, although I am sure some do. It's easy to get an AI to make crap up, though, I would hate to be teaching English or Literature now.

I am about three-fourths finished with my next Kentucky mystery, set in Louisville. Hope to have it out this fall.

If I were teaching I would do oral exams, though that would be difficult with large classes.

I feel for the younger generation learning from AI. Pre-packaged content with no necessary reference to reality.

NEW DELHI — Shortly after midnight on May 9, an Indian journalist received a WhatsApp message from Prasar Bharati, the state-owned public broadcaster. Pakistan’s army chief had been arrested, the message read, and a coup was underway.
