CultureCanadian publisher cuts ties with best-selling writer Orelien over AI use

Publisher Boreal says an investigation confirmed that Haitian-Canadian writer Thelyson Orelien used AI in the writing process for his breakthrough novel, “It Was Either That or Die”, and that it has ended its professional relationship with him. Boreal said it could not determine how extensively AI was used. Orelien maintained that no sentence in the book was machine-generated.
