Amazon: Unauthorized book under author's name

EDIT: Left out the important point that these books were AI generated.

You might want to start another thread and see if we can get this one deleted because (when editing the title) I somehow left out that these were AI generated books, which was the point of the article.

Sorry I missed it.

This thread could definitely be deleted then.
