Any tea to spill? Apparently, before your admins here joined WB (sometime in 2025) a "pro" WB judge was caught using AI to judge entries and provide feedback. (Yes, the pro judged contests used to give actual written feedback!)
What do we know about this incident, since WB's tactic seems to be delete and bury when they mess up?
I'm salty to know there were writers having their work pasted into the Borg without their permission, with no compensation (that I know about). I am even more salty that instead of fixing the problem, it appears the "solution" was to abolish written feedback from the pro judges, which negates any way to detect if the WB pro judges are currently using AI. Make that make sense.
