Noting that new site member
Dr Friesen (account age 1 day, site membership 23 hours) recently coldposted the following page, which has multiple indicators of AI-generation: https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-8168 page title "Scp 8168 the forbidden factory"
Of note, the user made a few edits, including removing the word "identical" in Revision 1, (incorrectly) retitling the page in Revision 2, and a more substantial overhaul in Revision 3 where they replace scattered individual words and phrases with synonyms (the updated text reads even more like AI-generation; likely the author input the original text into another AI). Note that throughout all edits, a rating module is never added.
Revision 0 (initial post):
Item #: SCP-8168
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-8168-A must be placed within a 300-meter perimeter of reinforced material in all directions, within a remote forest location in [REDACTED]. Only Level 4 clearance and written Site Director Friesen permission are permitted to enter. All means of entry must be under surveillance by surveillance drones. Unauthorized individuals accessing SCP-8168-A are to be detained, screened for cognitive effects, and administered Class-C amnestics as appropriate.
All samples of SCP-8168-B obtained must be separately stored in humanoid normal containment cells modified to plush-based subjects. Physical contact is forbidden outside strict test procedures. Samples are fully capable of voluntary movement and exhibit no indication of losing any cognitive ability, including memories, personality, or problem-solving capabilities, before being transformed.
Description:
SCP-8168 is two identical anomalies:
SCP-8168-A is a deserted two-line, mid-sized textile mill. The support line—the one clearly defined by older factory signage—is where anomalous activity occurs. An individual admitted to this section alone is rapidly converted into an instance of SCP-8168-B through mechanical and memetic means utilizing self-functioning factory machinery.
SCP-8168-B are soft, living forms of the converted individuals. All SCP-8168-B instances possess a generic face of a stuffed animal, most commonly a bunny or other harmless animal. The tangible face of each instance is in accordance with the personality of the subject, with many having features that correlate to their habits, actions, or suppressed personality. Without tangible bodies, instances of SCP-8168-B exhibit full cognitive capability, consciousness, and autonomous mobility. They wear miniature versions of clothing before the change, i.e., lab coats, ID badges, or police uniforms.
The process of transformation is governed by a sequence of anomalous robotic limbs, sewing machines, and injectors integrated in the secondary line. Victims are placed in stasis and administered a metallic-tinted thread substance that instantly restructures their organic tissue into synthetic fiber and filling. Robotic dressing in modified miniature SCP uniforms is the final procedure.
Addendum 8168-1: Interview Log with SCP-8168-B-1
Subject: SCP-8168-B-1 (former Junior Researcher Elsie Navarro)
Interviewer: Dr. Reeds
Dr. Reeds: Can you hear me, Elsie?
SCP-8168-B-1: (nods) Yes, Doctor. I can hear you. It's strange, though—my voice is. fluffier.
Dr. Reeds: Alright, let's talk about what happened to you. What do you remember?
SCP-8168-B-1: I was making my way to the second assembly line. It wasn't to be operated, but I required a close look at the conveyer system for a safety report. The next thing I recall, the machines came online. Arms encircled me, and something went through my neck. I couldn't move. I was. warm. Then I lost consciousness.
Dr. Reeds: And what did you experience when you regained consciousness?
SCP-8168-B-1: I was on the conveyor belt, totally transformed. I saw myself in one of the slats of metal. Bunny ears, stitched-up paws—cute, I suppose. Nasty, as well. But I still believe I'm me. Just. fluffed up.
Dr. Reeds: And mobility?
SCP-8168-B-1: Complete mobility. I can walk, take the stairs, open doors. Even wave. It's a bit springy, but it's okay.
Addendum 8168-2: Incident Log — Dr. Friesen Conversion
On ██/██/20██, during a scheduled test with D-9421, Site Director Friesen was directly within SCP-8168-A. During the test, D-9421 panicked upon entering the secondary production line and attempted to flee. While doing so, Dr. Friesen tripped and fell forward onto the running section of the conveyor. Before extraction could be completed, the automatic systems engaged.
Log observations recorded the following:
00:01:42: D-9421 enters secondary production line.
00:02:15: Subject panics and runs, bumping into Dr. Friesen.
00:02:27: Dr. Friesen staggers and collapses onto conveyor belt.
00:02:34: Robotic systems engage. Arms lower.
00:03:45: Transformation cycle is complete.
00:04:10: New SCP-8168-B incident manifests, in the guise of a plush rabbit dressed in an SCP mini-lab coat and ID badge.
Though full conversion, Dr. Friesen had all of his intellectual faculties, including memory, language, speech, and ability to command. This has not prevented him from remaining as Site Director of Site 115, but he now leads the Anomalous Transformation/Reversion Team—a section of professionals responsible for examining the transformation process and developing methods to reverse the subjects to their normal human state in a safe process.
Dr. Friesen's modification has institutionalized "Plush Protocol Training," a specialized mandatory briefing for all SCP-8168 staff. It addresses behavioral handling procedures for instances of SCP-8168-B, psychological support procedures for modified staff, and tactical preparation for inadvertent conversion.
Dr. Friesen has formally enrolled himself with the Foundation as SCP-8168-B-22, but he retains his title and designation of Site Director. Just as Dr. Bright was assigned as SCP-963, Dr. Friesen is in an active anomaly status within the holding protocols but maintains complete operational clearance because of retained cognitive and administrative functions.
Object class remains Euclid until a closer inspection of SCP-8168-A's total transformative triggers and boundaries.
Revision 3 (current version):
Item #: SCP-8168
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-8168-A will be placed in a buffer area of fortified material with a minimum of 300 meters in all directions in a remote wooded area in [REDACTED]. Entry is strictly prohibited without Level 4 clearance and written permission of Site Director Friesen. All available means of entry are to be monitored by surveillance drones. Unauthorized staff approaching SCP-8168-A should be detained, tested for cognitive damage, and administered Class-C amnestics if necessary.
All the samples of SCP-8168-B obtained must be kept separately in humanoid standard containment cells, modified for plush-based specimens. Physical manipulation is strictly forbidden except for strict test protocols. Samples exhibit full voluntary movement and do not appear to forgo any cognitive process, including memories, personality, or problem-solving ability, before transformation.
Description: SCP-8168 is two interrelated anomalies:
SCP-8168-A is a disused, mid-size two-line textile mill. The supporting line—clearly delineated by rusty industrial signage—is where anomalous activity occurs. Admission of a subject to this division in isolation results in the subject being rapidly converted into an instance of SCP-8168-B via mechanical and memetic operations via independent factory processes.
SCP-8168-B are plush, animate copies of the individuals transformed. Each example of SCP-8168-B possesses a stylized appearance which is akin to mass-produced stuffed animals (i.e., round facial features, button eyes, cloth skin). The physical features of each example coincide with the personality of the individual, with most bringing forth characteristics pertaining to their interests, activities, or repressed personality.
Rather, however, than retaining their original human proportions, SCP-8168-B cases are more whimsical, possessing proportions and form more appropriate to the kind of plush animal they hold themselves to be—standing bunnies, bears, or other quadrupedal and bipedal toys—though still totally mobile and interactive.
SCP-8168-B examples retain full cognitive capacity, consciousness, and autonomous locomotion. They have functioning mouth articulation, and movement-synchronized speech is audible. Examples typically appear in subdued, miniaturized forms of whatever attire they had when transformed.
The procedure is regulated by anomalous robotic limbs, sewing machines, and injectors interfaced through the secondary production line. Victims are immobilized and injected with a silver-plated thread substance that reconstitutes organic tissue into synthetic fiber and plush filling. Automated dressing in smaller clothing resembling the subject's former wardrobe is the last stage.
Addendum 8168-1: Interview Log with SCP-8168-B-1
Subject: SCP-8168-B-1 (until recently Junior Researcher Logan Navarro)
Interviewer: Dr. Reeds
Dr. Reeds: Logan, can you hear me?
SCP-8168-B-1: (nods) I hear you, Doctor. It's strange, though—my voice is. fluffier.
Dr. Reeds: Alright, let's go over what happened to you. What do you remember?
SCP-8168-B-1: I was making my way down towards the second assembly line. I wasn't really meant to be down there, but I wanted an unobstructed view of the conveyor system for a hazard report. The next thing I knew, the machines were lit up. Arms engulfed me, and something spiked my neck. I couldn't move. I was. warm. And then I fainted.
Dr. Reeds: And then what occurred when you regained consciousness?
SCP-8168-B-1: I was on the belt, totally converted. I glanced in one of the metal slats. Bunny ears, stitched paws—cute, I guess. Horrifying, too. But I still think I'm me. Just. puffed up.
Dr. Reeds: And mobility?
SCP-8168-B-1: Complete mobility. I can walk, go up the stairs, open doors. Even wave. It's all a bit springy, but it functions.
Addendum 8168-2: Incident Log — Dr. Friesen Conversion
On ██/██/20██, Site Director Friesen was physically present within SCP-8168-A when conducting a scheduled test with D-9421. Within the test, D-9421 panicked during insertion into the secondary production line and attempted to flee. As Dr. Friesen slipped and fell forward onto the operating section of the conveyor, prior to the completion of extraction, automatic systems took action.
Observation logs recorded the following:
00:01:42: D-9421 goes into secondary production line.
00:02:15: Subject panics and runs out, colliding with Dr. Friesen.
00:02:27: Dr. Friesen falls and knocks onto conveyor.
00:02:34: Robotic systems turn on. Arms drop.
00:03:45: Transformation cycle is finished.
00:04:10: New SCP-8168-B instance materializes, in the shape of a plush rabbit dressed in a small lab coat and ID badge.
Despite the total transformation, Dr. Friesen did not lose any of his mental abilities, including memory, language, speech, and command capacity. This has not prevented him from being Site Director of Site 115. He now leads the Anomalous Transformation/Reversion Department—a department dedicated to researching SCP-8168's impact and determining safe reversal methods for those infected.
Dr. Friesen's transformation has led to the development of "Plush Protocol Training," an obligatory orientation for any SCP-8168 personnel. The training includes behavioral handling procedures, psychological support measures for personnel converted, and emergency procedures in case of unsolicited transformation.
Dr. Friesen was officially listed as SCP-8168-B-22 but continues to hold his administrative role at Site 115. He remains operationally cleared since he retains his cognitive and administrative abilities.
Object class is currently Euclid until a better understanding of SCP-8168-A's complete transformative processes and possible reversal techniques.

ok i will make changes
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17138112/scp-8168#post-7014153 (after edit that looked like AI rewrote portions of the text)
Just updated with some of the feedback. Please tell me if I could make it better in any way.
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17138112/scp-8168#post-7014152 reply to comment "Author, did you use AI or LLMs in creating this article?"
No, just to help make the idea, the article is me, it's still a WIP. I would like feedback, though.
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17138112/scp-8168#post-7014172 reply to comment "I'm sorry, I'm not quite following you. Is that "no, I didn't use AI/LLMs to create this article" or "yes, I used AI/LLMs to create this article, but only for idea generation." Everything about how this is written suggests the opposite — that you had the idea, and the LLM/AI was used to write it. It bears many hallmarks of AI writing that I usually only ever see in beep-boop written articles, and rarely-to-never in articles written by a human."
only to get an idea of what this SCP should be. not to make the article. I have noticed that I do seem to write a little robotic. AI hasn't touched the article unless Grammarly spell check counts as an AI.
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/forum/t-17138112/scp-8168#post-7014173 reply to comment "Again, I don't find the statements "AI was used to get an idea of what this SCP should be" and "AI hasn't touched the article" to be compatible."
I meant like AI didn't make the article itself, only to give me an idea to write about.
