This really highlights how AI and ghostwriting has become more complex.

It’s not just about writing anymore, but also getting around AI detection tools and altering content to pass these checks.

It seems like the role of a ghostwriter is evolving to include not just creativity but technical proficiency in working with or against AI.

It’s an interesting shift that makes me wonder if ghostwriters are becoming more like content engineers now.

Ironically, AI Giants like OpenAI and the rest don't have reliable AI detection tools themselves and can't even detect their own LLMs outputs.

So I have to laugh at clients who depend on third party software with a fraction of the budget of companies like OpenAI to detect if something is "AI" written.

It's the new witch-hunt.

We've seen this with plagiarism checkers for years, with all their scores and color codes. Flagging common phrases, idioms and anecdotal quotes, not to mention signposting with 2-3 words...

If a client asks, say no and tell them look at your portfolio, if they don't like your work, tell them to play their AI checker game with someone else, that you will not accept any outputs from any AI checker and move on if they say no.

They'll be more trouble then their worth..

Sorry for the tangent. This comment could have been an article on its own lol!

Thanks for sharing!
