Thank you for sharing this article and for making us aware. It's a disgrace and I hope you all unite to get redress.

I'm shocked but not surprised. I've noticed AI generated material has increased on social media platform claiming to be factual. Sadly, there are too many gullible people who are all too ready to believe such misinformation on social media.

Since childhood I've beenan avid reader of books, both fiction and non-fiction, and I'm appalled by the intrusion of AI into the world of authors.

Please let us know how we readers can support our authors.

This is awful and being an author whose book is on that list is just such an awful, upsetting, and demoralising feeling. I have already taken the steps you’ve suggested, and filled in the letter for Meta, used the template to email my MP, and let my publisher know. I guess we just have to wait and see now what happens next though, like you, I’m not holding my breath!

This is shocking. I agree with you that Big Tech has too much control and it's scary. Good luck with the work to fight these bullies.
