A variety of influencers in developing countries tell their audiences that they can make money by submitting AI-generated stories to sites with open submissions. The people submitting don't know that there's virtually zero chance of acceptance and are trying to get the fee for a published story, which is a substantial amount in their country. The influencers probably know that the scheme won't work, but don't care because they just need to keep their audience watching.
