A group called Balance ton Claude is accusing an author of using AI to write their novel, which won the Prix du Roman Fnac and is a finalist for the Goncourt and Renaudot awards. The group used a program called Pangram to detect AI-generated text, which has an almost negligible chance of making a mistake. The author denies the accusation and is compiling a dossier to prove their authorship. Critics of AI-detectors say they are unreliable and can wrongly flag human writing as AI-generated. The row will feed the debate over what mix of human and AI creativity is deemed acceptable.
