And so, when a critic says that she judged whether a story written by an African was generated by AI by sussing it out and relying on stereotypes about the continent, she is not saying anything new. In fact, she is part of a tradition that has placed art and literature coming from the continent on a platform to be judged before being turned over like a cadaver. The west has always found language to reduce the brilliance of the African artist. It has always insisted that we are incapable of producing anything of genius that does not have its foundation in the West.
