Publishing CEOs just made a public statement about AI, and every author is reacting to the wrong thing. I'm breaking down what publishers actually mean when they warn about AI generated books, why traditional publishing companies use AI internally while telling authors not to, and what this means for the future of self publishing. If you're wondering how AI affects book publishing, whether AI books are legal, or why self publishing beats traditional publishing right now, this is the real breakdown. Authors deserve to know what's actually happening behind these headlines.
