When you say β€œAnd another thing,” you insinuate I was listening when you said the first thing. I resent that.

Judging from CMOS and MW, this seems to be *technically* correct because the prefix "anti" is hyphenating a permanent compound noun.

Judging from *my own* perspective, this hyphen situation is just bananapants. Banana-pants?

A Ghostbusters car and a Scooby-Doo Mystery Machine parked at a gas station.

pretty smart to call them both because it might be a real ghost or it could just turn out to be some dude in a mask

A8 Second, remain neutral in your queries. "Because of [this] and [that], it looks like AI was used in some capacity. Is that right?" And have an idea of what you're going to do with the information when they answer. How will it affect your process? Your relationship? Your trust? 2/2 #ACESChat

A8 First of all, I encourage you not to wait. Have a conversation with the author before starting. In a neutral tone, ask how they're using AI. If they feel you're judging, they're less likely to be open about their process. 1/2 #ACESChat

Interesting. Did you know going in that the draft was generated by AI? And was there any human involvement before it came to you?

A6 It looks like the assumption here is that the drafts aren't being revised or rewritten by the person submitting the text. To be clear, typically you'll find AI being used as part of the creative process, not as the final product. By cleanup: do you mean formatting? Sure! Charge away. #ACESChat
