GnomeCorp Sued After Accusing An AI Writer of Using AI

"Every word of my articles was written by hand," the plaintiff declared in a filing organized with a level of hierarchical formatting no human has achieved since the invention of the bullet point. "I have video evidence of me typing."

Our exclusive sources confirm the video does indeed show typing. What it does not show, critics note, is the lawsuit being typed.

GnomeCorp argued the label is protected opinion, hedged by the word "likely," and therefore no more actionable than a weather forecast. "We never said it was slop," a spokesperson did not say. "We never said slop. We said likely slop. Big difference — maybe the biggest ever, people are saying. Meteorologists say 'likely' all the time. Nobody sues the weatherman. Nobody."

The judge, meanwhile, has reportedly requested that all future filings be submitted "in fewer than eleven sections," a motion which benefits the plaintiff, as it will reduce their ChatGPT free plan usage.
