I feel the need to be clear; I have no reason to suspect the author of using AI; and am even a bit irritated for the author that I have to entertain these suspicions writ large now. It is unfair to the author who hasn’t done anything to warrant that suspicion, but it’s the world we live in at the moment.

I vocalize this feeling I have, not because the author has done anything to warrant it, but here, in this forum, we commonly have folks saying “so what if it’s AI?”, and by bringing up these feelings we have around the industry, we can have the conversation and (hopefully) have other folks think twice about whether they would use AI to write their book.

I want to read this book and have added it to my list of things to read; and your vouching for the author does help. One underlying issue I have (that is a me problem) is that I know nothing about this particular area, and therefore know nothing about the experts in this area, so I rely on human vouching.
