To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.
She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.
It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

We were outraged by Liam, but Diana is a young girl that has been in an ICE prison even longer. The wee girl still is in prison. Be loud! Share! Justice for Diana Crespo Gonzalez!
Today is day 20 (depending on when incarceration countdown begins) of Diana Crespo Gonzales’ incarceration in an ICE prison in Texas. Children are not allowed to legally be detained for more than 20 days.

Imagine reading from Genesis to Revelation, about God liberating people time and time again from Egypt to Rome, and somehow arriving at the conclusion that the Bible is to be used to support the power of earthly empires rather than to advocate for the people empires harm.
