Wow so she knows it’s wrong and the writing sucks, but is still doing it to not only unsuspecting readers, but also making money by selling the how-to to wanna-be AI “novelists”.
>But when it comes to her current pen names, Ms. Hart doesn’t disclose her use of A.I., because there’s still a strong stigma around the technology, she said. Coral Hart is one of her early, now retired pseudonyms, and it’s the name she uses to teach A.I.-assisted writing; she requested anonymity because she still uses her real name for some publishing and coaching projects. She fears that revealing her A.I. use would damage her business for that work.
I *hope* it damages her business and work. So scummy.
I read an AI book recently (“Shy Girl” by Mia Ballard) because I was curious as to how terrible it would be, and it was *terrible*. These people have little respect for the art of writing and just want quantity over quality so they could sell $3 copies on Amazon to Kindle.

It’s not “an experiment” if you actually put them on the market and charge money for it. It’s a business.
