That writing prompt generator I trusted gave me a snake eating its own tail
I plugged in a random fantasy prompt from a generator site and wrote 4,000 words that turned out to be a recycled version of my own deleted draft from 3 years ago, so now I'm asking if anyone else ever fact-checks their AI prompts before committing to them like I should have done.

Aw man, hold on. You're kinda framing this like the generator failed you, but it sounds like you're the one who recycled your own draft without noticing. A prompt generator cant know what you wrote three years ago. Thats not a bug, thats just how random text works. Like, if it spat out "dragon meets a girl in a tavern" and your old draft had a dragon meeting a girl in a tavern, thats on you for not changing the setup enough. Next time, check the first few lines against your old stuff before you commit, or at least swap the core details. Ive done the same thing with old character names, so I get it, but blaming the tool is kinda backwards.
