I am consistently confused by people treating Archive of Our Own as a regular algorithmic social media site, to the point that they delete fics when they decide to move fandoms. Its your work to do what you want with, but why publish on an ARCHIVE with no intent of archival.
people positioning themselves as an authority on spotting ai remind me of when my politics teacher would tell us constantly that those who think they are immune to propaganda because "they can always tell" are the most likely to fall for it
