Whilst some of the author’s work may be stories about AI, no part of any of this is produced by AI. The author remains resolutely against the utilisation of AI for any part of their work, has zero interest in the unoriginal splicing and reassembly of content by artificial intelligence, and continues to proudly produce authentic, personal and imperfect work.
