    This is not just bots. We are seeing more and more submissions by writers with publication records who are almost certainly using AI to create initial drafts and then are trying and failing to edit things into shape.
    This post is unavailable.

    Please SHARE! Writers! We want to apologize that we are still processing the recent short story submissions. Uncanny Magazine was hit with a massive volume of submissions due to AI subs. We hope to get through the pile over the next two weeks. Thank you for your patience.

    Hey, @premiumbusiness. We are a five-time Hugo Award-winning Science Fiction and Fantasy Magazine who has published @neilhimself, @nkjemisin, @charliejane, @MaryRobinette, @seananmcguire, @GWillowWilson, and many other prominent writers. We keep getting denied for verification. Why?

    Uncanny Magazine promises that we will never use an artwork that was not created by an artist. We believe in art created by humans and paying the artist who created it.

    Replying to @UncannyMagazine
    Uncanny does not provide review copies to any reviewer who has an agenda against marginalized voices. We also will never promote their reviews, even if they are positive about a particular story. These reviewers actively hurt our community, & we want nothing do with them.

    While we were on vacation, the Internet exploded with a discourse about magazine submissions and AI-written stories. Since we are getting tagged in these discussions, we wanted writers to know about the situation at Uncanny. Currently, we haven’t experienced these issues.

    Writers, we know how disappointing it feels when your story is rejected. But please, never, ever respond to one of our fabulous submissions editors with an email questioning their decision in an obnoxious manner. There is nothing to be gained by being an asshole.
