They think the story was written by (or with) a large language model, not your own brain. Did you use ChatGPT or Claude or something? Did you take Grammarly's suggestions on how to improve your language?

Hi Tina,
This seems to be a pretty common issue. I ran into it with one of my stories, and a number of other folks seem to have run into it as well. Lots of people have lots of theories as to what/why this is happening, and they will soon get into a circular argument about it in response to your question. For what it's worth, my educated guess as to what is happening is as follows:
- Literotica uses a filter of some kind to try to spot stories that were written by/with the help of AI
- I find the assertion that this filter is a non-LLM-based one compelling. If that is correct, it means that the filter uses statistical modeling to determine how "AI-like" your writing is.
- The peer-reviewed literature suggests that these models perform poorly and are particularly prone to flagging professionally written/edited material and things written by neurodiverse people as being created by AI when they were not.
- If your story got flagged by this algorithm as being "AI-like" it is challenging, if not actually impossible, to do anything about it. With my story flagged, I tried four times to edit it to make it less statistically "AI-like" without success.
- I sent a polite note to Laurel and included an explanation in the notes section of my last submission, but to no avail.
Lots of people have ideas on how to work around this issue, but I worry that most of them are little better than superstition at this point. Maybe I'm wrong.
Good luck,
CGN
I’m kinda figuring mine have been too poorly written, or hopefully too well written (more than likely the former) to be considered AI.
I’ll have to watch for those then!Haha, just read my stories, I have no idea why on earth they would ever get flagged as AI.
