Why Substack's New Pangram Feature is a Mistake
If an algorithm cannot actually know who wrote something, what happens when publishers, editors, readers, and writers begin treating its prediction as proof?
When an accusation can destroy a career, who carries the burden of proof?
And if a writer cannot prove what happened inside their own mind, can anyone ever truly prove that they are innocent?
Welcome to the witch trial.
In this episode:
Substack and the introduction of Pangram
An experiment with AI detection and wildly inconsistent results
Why AI detectors make predictions rather than establish authorship
Perplexity, burstiness, and what these systems are actually measuring
The pressure to intentionally introduce mistakes into writing
The burden of proof and the impossibility of proving a non-event
AI accusations within publishing
The impact of AI accusations on writers and careers
The growing divide between AI opponents and AI users
The danger of judging people based on assumptions rather than evidence
What happens when suspicion becomes enough to condemn someone
Find Your Colors is the publication and podcast discussing The Shards of Color Trilogy, along with experiences navigating writing, publishing, creativity, and the publishing community.
