Substack adds an AI detector to help spot blogs written by no one
TL;DR
Substack will now help users determine whether what they're reading may have been written by AI. A new tool coming to the platform can scan posts, notes, replies, and comments to provide an estimate of how much text could be AI-generated or written with AI assistance, according to a blog post published on Tuesday. The tool is powered by an AI detection company called Pangram and is rolling out across the web and the iOS app, with an Android launch coming "soon.
Nauti's Take
For small teams, this is first a quality and reputation issue. If you use AI in drafting, verify whether your editing process and final voice still get flagged as machine-written, because false positives can erode trust and turn disclosure into an operational policy question.
