This made me so happy to hear. If authors don't want the conversation to revolve around AI, then they shouldn't use it. If they're going to use it on the cover, what's stopping them from using it in the contents of the book? Let this be a lesson to everyone involved with AI art.

Fuck me this is bleak. But please, do continue to use GenAI slop thumbnails for your YouTube videos, or your album art, or your book covers or whatever else. I'll continue to refuse to watch/listen/read any of them, knowing already they're not worth the time & that you're a disappointing lazy hack.
