Clarkesworld, a well known scifi and fantasy magazine had to close their user submissions because people are spamming them with ChatGPT generated stuff.

Here's a blog post about it.

They got more submissions for the first two weeks of february than they got during the last 12 months - meaning about 80% or 90% of what they got recently were AI-generated stories. I'd imagine the people sending them are the same ones that flood Amazon with this stuff.

Quote from the Clarkesworld guy:

> The people causing the problem are from outside the SF/F community. Largely driven in by "side hustle" experts making claims of easy money with ChatGPT. They are driving this and deserve some of the disdain shown to the AI developers.
