AYI-YAH-YAI---AI is EVERYWHERE

 

In an older post, I disparaged agents whose submission forms ask if your fiction was written by AI.

I mean, who would do such a thing? Like, really?!?

 

I spoke too soon or too naively.

 

Turns out there are presses where all the books are written by AI. Not “assisted,” but churned and blasted out into the ethernet.

 

AI comes up with the titles. AI writes the books. AI creates the covers, with “art” if appropriate. AI edits and posts online. AI connects to POD services for the innocent luddites who want printed copies. AI generates SEO friendly marketing campaigns.

 

Not naming names. AI will tell you if you use internet search. AI results now feature at the very top of the number one search engine.

 

Yes, you can “pen” a book in minutes. For an added fee you can have a whole series.

 

Writers, our days are numbered.

This lovely “Lady with Cats” was AI generated.

There’s a novel there, no doubt.

Yes, I came across one at someone's home and it's scary good. But soulless. Our days are not numbered. I will continue to write, sing, paint...nothing can take away my joy.
