That's OK you don't need to read or engage on any AI threads you don't want too
It's certainly a subject that needs discussing and one that a lot of people have questions and concerns about.
I personally don't want to see the situation end up where the publishing/ ebook world is flooded with endless AI generated fluff (to put it kindly)
Look at the state of (in particular) the Amazon ebook store currently, there are plenty of good books but there is also tonnes of absolute garbage, seemingly cobbled together by people just looking to make a quick buck and not interested in writing something good. Imagine how bad it could get if people didn't even need to go to the trouble of sitting down and typing something rubbish but could just ask an AI to do it for them, Amazon users could be swamped with an avalanche of utter drivel, who would want to wade through a market saturated with AI drivel?
As District Judge Vince Chhabria said (as linked in SteveEisenberg post) -

AI-generated books, Chhabria argued, might not affect sales of works by well-known authors. But they could, he continued, "very well prevent the next Agatha Christie from getting noticed or selling enough books to keep writing."

The market could end up all the poorer for this, I personally wouldn't want to see this happen.
