Firstly, thank you so much Thomas for such a kind mention, means a lot to me! And there's so much exceptional writing happening on Scribe, with some amazing writers. I will go now and read them out.
Secondly, AI is creating a nuisance in the literary world, and I am really very irritated. As you've mentioned, I did find some chatgpt bots commenting, or whatever. The good thing is, they are easily recognizable, the words are so repeatative. AI can never replace human emotions or feelings.
Thirdly, my respect for you and Scribe increased threefolds, thanks for not selling yourself for these bots and AI, as Sam has mentioned in his comment. Tough times ahead for all of us, but we'll sail through this.
Thanks again for running this amazing publication with utmost honesty! That's the reason I love writing here at Scribe, and shall always do so!
