Entirely human
What this means
Nobody used an artificial intelligence tool on this work — not to plan it, not to write it, not to check it. The author wrote it, and every error in it is theirs.
Spellcheckers and grammar checkers don’t count towards the index and never have. Checking your spelling is not authorship.
What it doesn't tell you
- Whether the work is any good.
- Whether the author was right to use artificial intelligence, or wrong to.
- Anything about the author's honesty beyond the fact that they declared.
The index describes where the words came from. Nothing else. A reader who won't go above a 4 and a reader who seeks out the 8s because they find them thrilling are both served by the same number.
Saying it out loud
If someone asks whether you used artificial intelligence, this is the answer — and it needs no elaboration.
“No. No artificial intelligence at any stage of this — not planning it, not writing it, not checking it.”
Put authorshipindex.org beside the number and you never have to explain it again — anyone who wants the detail can go and read it.
