Can You Spot AI-Generated Content?
Don’t be upset — let’s discuss!
You wrote a great story, poured your heart into it, and then — bam!
You get a rejection because of suspected AI content.
What a nightmare!
You’re frustrated, angry, and upset. We totally understand.
Just stay calm, and I’ll explain what happened and how we can fix this together.
If you’re reading this, your story was likely rejected because the editors thought it might have been generated by AI.
But this isn’t a final verdict!
We’re human, and we make mistakes sometimes.
Stay positive — we could be wrong in your case! We’re always open for discussion.
Let me give you a deeper look at how this works.
How do we detect AI content?
We use these AI content detectors when reviewing submissions:
We understand these methods aren’t perfect and can give false positives. So, dear writer, keep reading!
Why do we have to use AI content detectors?
Medium as a platform is strict on purely AI-generated content.
So our publications follow this principle too.
In the end, Medium should be a place for human writers and readers. That’s the goal!
What to do when my story is rejected?
Let’s discuss!
Believe me, the editors really try to be as open-minded as possible when reviewing stories, and we don’t discriminate against anyone!
So follow these easy steps to fix the problem:
- Check your article with AI content detectors yourself.
- Edit the parts (if you want) marked as AI content.
- Reply to our private note.
- Submit your story again!
And that’s it!
