- Bona Books, a small press, discovered they had inadvertently accepted AI-generated stories for their anthology 'Wrath Month', highlighting a growing issue in publishing.
- The investigation revealed red flags in submissions, such as lack of author online presence, shallow editorial engagement, and repetitive or inconsistent storytelling elements.
- The press is taking action by publishing a detailed report, revising AI policies, developing anti-AI resources, and collaborating with industry partners to promote human-authored content.
