I'm occasionally accused of using AI for my writing. I like short and direct sentences. I use bullet points. I guess people think these things are tells for AI. I don't care what anyone thinks. I use my own head, and I'm completely uninterested in any sort of automated feedback, up to and including spelling and grammar check. If someone like me that never uses AI is accused of it, it must be really difficult to differentiate between human and machine writing.

As to your idea about publishing notes, that's part of the process a good creative or essay writing class will teach you. They may require you to create physical note cards and an outline as a preliminary assignment before the actual writing is due. Its good practice for people that don't know how to organize their thoughts, and its pointless for anyone that does. My process is usually one or more text dumps to create content blocks, merge them together, streamline the narrative through the piece, and then a couple rounds of edits. I work with multiple text files that morph as I go, rarely backed up or versioned. There would be nothing for me to offer as half-done work.

In programming, we use a tool called "Git" to keep track of changes we make to a piece of software, well, and also to collaborate with other devs.

I've been using Git to have a history of how my text-based creative projects evolve (not just writing 😅). And then I'm publishing those like an open-source code repository. So, others can go through the history and look at the first draft, or the final edits, or everything in between.

Obviously, though, this does mean that your final result is public as well, unless you find a way to only give access to paying customers, I guess.

To give an example, here's a short tech explainer thingy I wrote: https://trem.codeberg.page/rust/macro_rules.html
And here's the complete change history: https://codeberg.org/trem/pages_src/commits/commit/830718aaa788ac00fb7ba9635c405f7c18cc76fb/src/rust/macro_rules.md

Rather than trying to convince people that you don't use AI, just write something personal and creative. Develop your voice. The plagiarism machine is unable to generate text that is consistently human-like and unique.

Do your writing in a public place, then ask Flock to turn over their surveillance videos of you writing it.

There is no way. Even you filmed yourself writing it long hand, maybe you're just writing down what ChatGPT generated a little while before.

Especially in creative writing, every sentence and word choice matters. You could write a companion piece that does a critical analysis of your writing that explains the choice for every sentence. Yes, a.i. could produce that but it would make no sense at all. And if it ever did made total sense then at that point the machines have passed the test (but this will never happen)

There's no way. Did you use Google search when researching something? You just used AI.

Watch a related video to something you just watched? You just used AI.

The entire concept of being able to detect AI use is flawed from the start. It might have worked—as a concept—if there was just one AI model. Then you could check against its most common outputs and give it half sentences to see if it generates the same output as what the author wrote.

Now we have dozens and dozens of models and they have new releases every few months. You'd have to perform that kind of checking for each and every version that exists!

Let's say you wanted to detect Gemini: Well, they're on 3.8 (Flash) now but just a few weeks ago they were on 3.6. Is the output of 3.8 really that different from 3.6? Yes! Enough that it would make detecting if it wrote some part of a sentence nearly impossible.

Was this sentence modified by Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Qwen, GLM, Llama, or any number of dozens of versions of dozens of models with these numbers increasing exponentially over time?

It's just not going to happen.

To whom? It what context?

Grammatical errors are an indication.. You could also speak to people about the topic..
