Do you have any scientific evidence to support this claim?

I don’t think it’s particularly good at all, but it does while away the hours sometimes

What model are you using?

I can’t see anyone who enjoys reading being enamored with AI.

Bold claim from someone who spends hours writing AI stories for themself. Then again, I guess I am assuming you consider yourself a person who enjoys reading.

My wife reads over 300 books per year, and she spots it pretty easily.

That’s over 5 books a week. I find if difficult to believe she’d notice if you slipped a book she read in January book into the list for this month, let alone an AI generated story. Still, that’s an impressive amount of books. My wife reads about 100 a year, but they’re almost all in her favorite genre, crime drama, and I am completely certain I could get a decent AI model to output a full length book in that genre and she wouldn’t notice. I’m not sure quantity of books read in a time frame really tells us much, either way, about the ability to detect AI generated writing.
