AI-Detection Project 'Balance ton Claude' Defends Anonymous Accusations as Collective Effort
JFPuget · x · 2026-09-26
Samuel Fitoussi of the French 'Balance ton Claude' project responded to backlash over its claim that the hit literary debut C'était ça ou mourir was largely AI-written.
- He acknowledged publishing accusations from an anonymous account, explaining it was a collective effort: 'I was not alone,' with other members to reveal themselves if they wish.
- Critics question why he didn't publish under his own name or via his Le Figaro column, and which other books were tested.
- Defending the project, he argues the real victims are the human author who spent hundreds of hours on a manuscript that deserved the Goncourt, and thousands of betrayed readers.
