Why doesn't Vocal flag stories written by AI?
UPDATE: Vocal policy requires that AI content be labeled as such, but many authors are not doing this. https://customer-opinion.top/resources/an-update-from-vocal-on-ai-generated-content In my opinion, Vocal should enforce this policy, either by adding an 'AI-generated' flag as part of the moderation process, or by unpublishing works and authors who do not comply.

The Eye of the Beholder
‘But mum, noses don’t look like that,’ Shelley tells me, a little too loud for the hushed gallery. ‘That’s what made Picasso special,’ I reply. ‘He saw things differently from everyone else.’

Dear Rupert
Dear Rupert, . I wish there were another way to express the words I have to say. So please accept my deep regrets, that I must use rhyming couplets.

The Essentials
I hate shopping. Another chore. Another marker in my week. Usually we get it delivered, the poor delivery person staggering up the driveway with a dozen brown bags. And that’s just one week’s groceries for me and my husband and the four kids.
