It is like the wild west: how AI has rocked the literary world

Literary agents describe the current atmosphere as resembling the wild west. While some self-published authors and researchers point to the rise of AI-assisted writing, traditional publishers and writers express grave concern over the moral and legal implications of the technology, facing major copyright challenges and controversies surrounding accusations leveled against authors.
