@charmainesposts: Nigerian writer Jerry Falade @jerry_falade told The Independent that some of the writing patterns people associated with AI actually come from the Yorùbá rhetoric and storytelling that shaped his voice. But this is where it gets more worrying. A Stanford study tested seven AI detectors and found that on average they wrongly classified 61.3% of essays written by non native English speakers as AI generated. So when we start treating “sounds like AI” as proof, who is most likely to get caught in the crossfire? Sources: The Independent 2026, Stanford HAI 2023, The Guardian 2024, ACL Anthology 2026.
As an African writer, this also came up in one of my poetic readings, and fortunately for me, the piece I was reading had been written back in 2017 and was part of my first-ever written poem; hence, I had to provide the book in which I had written it. Also, luckily, I have this obsession with dates, and it carried the date on which it had been written, which was my saving grace!

AI is a stain on humanity. it's stifling creativity, stealing others content and passing it off as it's own.

The O and 1 Binary Sequence of digital systems traces to the Yoruba Opun Ifa Divination method. Ai is built on IFA from foundation.

We have been writing before AI but they are trying to downplay our work now because they can’t believe we are that good.
