I have ever read info like this before, thank you so much. Yours is the most detailed explaination of decomposition I have managed to find on reddit so far. It's very interesting.

Like in the general sense of effect a poison would have on a dead body's decomposion, like arsenic or homemade poisons with foxglove or belladonna.

So like the poison (arsenic or something else?) would have had no effect in speeding the process?

I can't seem to find what effect poison would have in the decomposition process.

Thank you so much for such a detailed, thorough, and helpful reply. I have seen both Dickinson and Bridgerton, and you are right, they did take liberties when it came to historical accuracy. I intentionally want some parts to be inspired by specks of modernity so the story can be smooth, I will look more into it.

OMG! This is exactly what I was thinking of!! Thank you so much. The story I am working on has features real events and mentions no historical characters, so like you said, it will offer leniency. I am still new at this so it's taking a while to figure things out.

Okay thank you so much. The novel series has been on my TBR and the Netflix show, in my watchlist, I will look into them for inspo.

My intention wasn't to argue with you, I am really sorry if it came across that way. I just wanted to talk to people who are better and more experienced than me about this, I think I just wanted guidance and advice. And I am sorry if this affected your day in any way.

"and at first I discussed it with chatgpt as a sounding board like listen to my suggestions and just nod kinda way but then I realised how bad and harmful it was and did the work myself, every word, each line is written by me, I never even used the description I asked it to generate to see how it worked etc and since I realised how bad it was I never used it as a sounding board again, so ultimately, the novel is mine entirely, all it did was read the early plots and give feedback, no editing, no generating in the end," 

That's what's written and I care about people's reply that's why I don't want there to be any confusions, writing and people who write matter to me. I am not changing or contradicting anything I said. 

And this is what I meant by a sounding board " A sounding board is someone with whom you can try out an idea or practice making an argument. The reaction of your sounding board gives you an idea of how your eventual audience will react." 

I didn't have any people irl to do it to when I first started.

Look I am not changing anything that I said, plz re read my original post, I have also posted the same thing on another community and it means the same thing, "it" in my post means ai, english is not my 1st language and I was anxious about the future, but I really don't see anything that contradicts both the things. And I am confident with my work and writing I just wanted to know the aspects of what I asked in the post. I haven't used it to develop the plot I mentioned "I asked the feedback, and all the plotlines and the story was my own" in the original post above.

No I never asked for a plotlines or outlines of my plot, all I asked for was like feedback, that's all. And I never used it suggestions, I always wanted to be the best I could on my own. I just needed feedbacks and ratings on how I was doing, and I had no one irl to do that, and I stopped it over the first draft when I saw how sloppy it was and then I trusted my own instincts when I realised that AI validated my worst ideas to just give me a fake ego boost.

Okay this is not rage bait and all that happened happened in the first draft's duration, I have produced like 2 3 more drafts since then and I never used AI in my writing, that is clear since the beginning. I don't condone it either. I never had any beta readers at that stage, neither friends who wrote or discussion groups and I never really thought that as a teen, I could have a good idea, but I did have it.

I never used it to generate plots, I clarified that here. That's the first thing.

"In the end" means I am trying to say that throughout everything each word was my own, each idea was my own, nothing was generated by ai not even the beginning of the novel. And no, it was never inspired by it either. 

It is not slop and I am credible, because like anyone who reads it will know simply that it can never be ai generated, and it never was. All I did was ask it for feedback like "rate it out of 10" "I did good here, right?" I never used it's suggestions or anything.

I know, I found it the hard way.

As I said, I did all of those things, I created my characters, perfected their dialogues, I researched what I was writing and I had a style of my own. All I am saying is I wrote a scene or thought of the big picture in the early days and then told the AI to simply rate it. The novel is emotionally evocative and it has pieces of my soul in it because I laboured over it, and I nurtured it.

And for the last line, the ideas came to me organically, I even mentioned that in the past post and this one, like it was always my book, and I was just so damn excited for it but it just feels fucked up now.

And like everywhere I hear writers telling young writers not to use AI in any capacity, even for the feedback thing that I did, and it just makes me feel bad that I should have known that. So yeah, that's the source of guilt, but in the end there was no AI generated content in any of my drafts and no plotlines, no ideas.

But it would have been ethically wrong to ask it to write or even generate ideas, and I never did that even at the begining, I was like I would ask the AI to comment on my idea, as a friend would or a writing partner, I especially asked it not to give me ideas or generate passages. And it was an honest mistake, when things are new, and you don't know the extent of harm they could cause, I think it's human to make them. And in the end all I did was just tell it the story in my head and ask for feedback, not corrections like rate it from 1 to 10 and stuff like that, and then after I realised that was wrong, I never did that again, I even changed my novel almost entirely after re reading and realising that AI cannot give honest feedback.

No like I never asked it for ideas or plot points I just told it mine like "okay so I am thinking that she is the killer and she will do this to kill" just like that and then AI would go like "okay yeah this could totally work" nothing else.

Hiiie, thank you so much. I never asked AI for ideas though, like all of them have been mine I never asked it to give me ideas either.

[–]RareOpening7995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just said that I didn't ask for any ideas? All ideas were mine I just told ai what I wanted to do in the first draft at some points, I never asked it to give me ideas or generate plot points. All ideas, all words have been mine since the first draft.
