"According to reports, as much as 78 per cent of the novel could have been AI generated, sparking a row in which Ballard blamed an unnamed editor, but renewed debate about AI as an unstoppable force across the arts."
"An editor at one of the big five publishing houses said a cold shiver went down my spine when the Shy Girl story broke. It really is a case of there but for the grace of God go I."
