I have yet to see any evidence that there is a market for AI-generated books outside of people being tricked into thinking they are not AI-generated books. AKA, it is a project of scamming and deceiving people, and really should be treated as fraud

This piece is deeply depressing and also extremely dumb?
She says she makes six figures because she pumped out hundreds of books with AI. But the books aren’t how she’s making that. She “offers a course” on how to churn out AI slop books and charges people for it.

Elliot Rodger, the guy who went on a misogynistic killing spree in 2014, wrote a manifesto that included a ton of rage over how World of Warcraft had been "ruined" and feminized, and I'm never gonna forget that.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"?
