The author of "Shy Girl" by Mia Ballard, a horror novel by the author, has written book and film reviews for Rue Morgue magazine, a magazine that focuses on analyses of horror media. She initially gave a five-star review of the book, which was revealed to be 78% AI-generated by The New York Times. The author, however, was not aware of this, stating that the book was being pulled from publication due to being AI generated. This author expresses concern over the ethical implications of AI in publishing and art, questioning how critics are supposed to do their job as a critic who criticizes the process of writing and art. Despite her disappointment, author James Frey, who uses AI in his writing, continues to have successful careers.
