Substack adds an AI detector to help spot blogs written by no one

TL;DR

  • Substack is integrating an AI detection tool to identify AI-generated or AI-assisted content.
  • The tool, powered by Pangram, will scan posts, notes, replies, and comments.
  • Users can activate the scan for content over 100 words via a 'Scan for AI text' option.
  • The feature aims to increase transparency and combat 'Claudefishing' by clarifying authorship.
  • Substack will also allow creators to add a 'How I make this' statement about their writing process.
  • The tool detects AI use but not the human effort or thoughtful AI assistance in content creation.
