Reddit user slams newly published memoir as blatantly ChatGPT-written, cites telltale phrasing
socksgal · reddit · 2026-09-21
A Reddit user bought a memoir by an industry acquaintance about her genetic disability—only to find it unreadable due to obvious AI writing, citing unnatural uses of "quietly" and the telltale "It's not just X, it's Y" sentence structure.
Comparing with other non-professional memoirs, the poster says this was blatantly AI-generated rather than just juvenile writing, calling the reliance on AI to fill gaps lazy and disappointing.
