In an opinion piece published by Le Monde, novelist and translator Noëlle Michel argues that Canadian-Haitian writer Thélyson Orélien deserves the benefit of the doubt in a controversy referred to as "the Thélyson Orélien affair."
Michel writes that the episode nonetheless raises broader questions about whether, as artificial intelligence increasingly produces writing that resembles human prose, humans may increasingly be writing in ways that resemble AI, according to Le Monde.
Underlying affair not detailed
The specific allegations at the center of the Orélien controversy were not detailed in the available report.
Le Monde described the piece as a tribune, the newspaper's format for outside opinion contributions, meaning the views expressed are Michel's own rather than the publication's.
