We think with the advent of AI it will become very difficult for human author to get a publishing contract. Yet, there is nothing to stop publishers writing books using AI, conjuring a human name for the "author" and selling it as a genuine work of art.

I am asking that you make it law that if a publisher or printer writes a book in part or whole using AI; they have to declare the usage on the cover, including the percentage of AI written material.
