I'm working my second adopted quiz. The first one was easy because what it needed was obvious, mostly more context in the questions.

But this one already had a lot of II in it; the description said that the II was generated by AI. It's really interesting! I double-checked its assertions and made some appropriate changes. But I don't feel I really claim to have written the II. Do I still submit it? Do I put something in the description about it? TIA!

I ended up claiming one of the OpenAI info quizzes a couple months ago and what I found was that I was working with a good basis, but without changes, the info came across as really dry and, in some cases, kind of wrong in content or tone, so by and large I needed to treat the contents as building blocks.

I strive to ensure that at the very least, info in my quizzes doesn't feel dry or hollow, even if it's not particularly interesting to everyone. So even if AI is there from the outset, it shouldn't really be at the end.

This was the quiz: link https://www.funtrivia.com/quiz/people/famous-quotes-in-history-34657.html

That's a great example, thank you. I think I can keep some of the bot's musings -- like "The lyrics reflect his feelings of loss and the struggle to grow up without her guidance" -- and clean up the extraneous information -- like how the bot always says "This is a song from U2." The name of the quiz is about U2.

Thank you!

AI loooooves to re-cover the basics. That's exactly the type of hollow text I'm thinking of. It's instantly recognizable and puts a red flag up in my mind.

I kind of feel I should indicate that there is a co-author!

Noble notion Pooty but I don’t see why. AI may have generated the info but, so long as you put it into your own words it’s no different to finding the information on Wikipedia and placing that in your own words.

What I should have added, is that you’re making it your own.

In terms of adding co-authors, there is really no need to add the fact that you adopted the quiz and another author was involved. All adopted quizzes state the previous author at the top when the quiz is played.
