In addition to this sounding like a crap idea, am I the only one who finds the picture a creepy modern version of that Rembrandt with the drapers’ guild guys?
Why? Who is this meant to be good for? Nobody wants your shit AI books, never mind 8,000 in a year. Just a terrible idea and a horrible road the publishing industry is heading down.

I’ll be honest here and risk losing my secret (ex) journalist decoder ring: Years ago my dad told me not to bother with the NYT because it had no idea what real life was about, and I’ve never really stopped believing that.
