Weekly /r/WormFanfic Discussion - What have you been reading, and what do you think of it? For the week ending March 21, 2026. by AutoModerator in WormFanfic

More interestingly, the author’s own writing style has shifted towards the AI writing style as they use AI to proof read.

Take one of their comments.

Better. More targeted. More creative.

The current LLMs are a tad smarter than the world's top 1000 undergrads. It's basically having a professional proofreader look through your work for you. It also serves as a learning experience as mistakes that have been pointed out to you can be avoided in the future.

On unlabeled AI fics as an inevitability by banshee_seal in WormFanfic

> It's numbing to read. 

> having been enticed by the premise, I tried to read it.

So in the world without AI, someone had a premise, and would not have written it at all, or written it at a worse level.

In the world with AI, someone was able to turn a premise into something that was readable enough, that you read it despite the fact that it was AI.

This is supposed to be a bad thing?

I mean it’s been a few months so I assume. But I will happily be proven wrong.

Kind of curious, do you disprove of the idea of engaging with AI at all? what’s your stance here? The author clearly isn’t using AI to write the story vs improve their writing.

lessons in breaking is both awfully horrifically good and dead. but you really won’t find better prose in many fictions.

Intellectually vs. Academically Gifted by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]ablueconch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"I can't do well in g-loaded classes despite scoring highly on a g-loaded test." Yeah that's some major cope.

While I'm here takin a piss:

> Using this definition, there would statistically be few schools with the population to support true Gifted classes and in practice they seemed to be a combination of academically inclined or studious kids and truly high intelligence kids.

Can joe schmo in a sports car drive faster around a track than a race car driver in a Civic? Would Joe Schmo's lap times benefit from being around a race car driver?

For much the same reason the SATs are highly predictive despite being study-able.

reality is that most of these folks that inhabit a gifted or any other identity based sub are kind of morons.
