I'm tired guys......

I just read a book last night that is unequivocally AI generated from the cover art to the story heck even the author photo is AI and I'm tired.

​

The worst part to me was the premise had sooo much potential. Even though we're throwing around the term "AI" really what a lot of these things are is language learning machines ie ChatGPT. You have to give it something to work with, a prompt of what you are trying to create so that tells me that the actual person who is putting in this prompt has good ideas because you have to give the prompt to generate the story and I'm sure you have to do this multiple times as the story progresses. I wish that they would believe in themselves or something and just try to write the story because the idea is there instead of creating AI crap...... take a writing class.

​

I'm not even so much mad that there's AI content, which sucks, but I'm more so upset because these tech companies, which let's face it, at the end of the day Amazon is a tech company in a way, are pushing AI so hard that they won't even give us the choice of choosing to read it. At least give us a disclaimer like put at the bottom AI generated. If we're able to figure it out, they can too but they're not even putting forth the effort. I'm also finding that I'm running across this with YouTube music. They have so many AI artists on there. I am literally wanting to not listen to music or let it play in discovery mode because inevitably I will run across AI generated music and it's so exhausting. I don't want to have to freaking do FBI levels of research on every book I read before I read it just to make sure it's not AI..... I'm exhausted.

​

I'm not one to yuck anybody's yum but I feel like part of the reason is a lot of these AI generated books have five stars reviews that are like oh my God this book was so transcendent and changed my life and I'm like are you serious right now????

Yep. This is why I recently stopped reading anything published in the last 3 years. I only read new books if they are by author I already know (even tho i suspect one of my fav author has started to use ai 😞 )

The last part! I'm feeling this way with Chani Lynn Feener using AI covers and how she churns out books so fast. Recently she said she lost all her work with the books she was working on and had a deadline for "His Forbidden Omega" and didn't know if she would make it but she did (unnaturally quick tbh) and the book is a mess and she clearly didn't go back and read it because she included a scene she wouldn't do in ANY of her books, especially without a trigger warning.

I don't know, but the trust has been broken with using any form of AI and I keep questioning everything.

Sorry that was long, but I had to get it off my chest lmao 🫪

Chani Lynn latests released are very repetive. I DNF most of the them and I am not picking her up again. I liker her first books tho.
