Surprising confession of the winner of a prestigious literary award. He did it on purpose

Philippe Jaenada, after winning the Goncourt Prize for his novel "L'Inconnue du quai de Javel," revealed he used AI three times during his writing process. He emphasized the importance of embracing AI rather than ignoring it. One application involved incorporating a sentence generated by AI to engage readers, while another was a playful jab at ChatGPT's absurd technical responses. His award-winning novel investigates the unsolved death of model Louise Cansot, blending classic storytelling with modern tools. The literary scene in France has recently faced controversy, notably with Thelyson Orelien's novel, which was withdrawn from Goncourt consideration due to allegations of AI authorship.
