    And that relates to a book shop selling LLM-written books how? Digital artists still draw what’s attributed to them, an AI author hasn’t written what’s attributed to them.

      AI is a little bit more complicated than that due to the flaws that pop up in generating.

      For example, here are some AI comic books that were created. What the author did was write the overall story, then used an AI prompt to create each panel of the comic.

      Each panel took dozens to hundreds of attempts, out of which the author made the artistic decision to choose the best one.
