Smelling like IA...

yes, zero exposure please for these sorts of 'publications' !

yes, zero exposure please for these sorts of 'publications' ! The 'complete' history of the Bf 109 in 122 pages.. 'he' previously published on the A380/A350/SR71 all released last November. No doubt he's got Ju87/Ju88 and Fw 190 'books' due next month

An explanation please. I need more details. Vague references mean nothing.

IA? What is that?

In French it could be "Intelligence Artificiel".

Well, I appreciate the reply. Yes, books on aviation subjects that are actually written by something like ChatGPT are out there. Along with bad to very bad cover art, also produced by art generators online.

Almost as good as this one:

Battlee? What a dreadful cover and the worse Spitfire I have ever seen!

Much more is out there Chris, unfortunately.

Sorry Edwest for my late answer. IA is AI in English.
I think it is a good thing to talk about those poor publications. Because it will raise awareness about this type of publication which, unfortunately, is increasingly invading the internet. The less people buy it the better!
An absolutely unknown author who suddenly became prolific (2 to 15 new books!!) are clues to this hoax.
Looking for new publications on Amazon I have seen:

Technology of WWII, by Nelson McKeeby.
Aces of the second world war, by Bill Johns.

Pure madness...

It's just pure fraud. Which is not new. Someone woke up one day and decided that a book written by a program with cover art generated by another program was a quick way to make a buck.

Amazon is monitoring this. They are taking some action.

My publisher sent a letter a few weeks back saying they are filing a lawsuit against Anthropic using copyrighted material without permission and some of my books are involved. No idea when anything will be resolved by AI is making a mess of things and costing authors money.

Sounds familiar Kent. I have even seen an original photo given to me by a German airman with an arrow showing who he is in the photo being used in other publications and sold on eBay................

Kent,


I will not provide a direct link but I suggest you Google "anthropic settlement website."

I am not an attorney but I can say the following. The goal is to bypass copyright law to make money. A legal action over Google Books took years to resolve. The Authors Guild was involved. Photographers also sued over having their works used without permission. When so-called Generative AI became available, writers and artists also sued. Their work was digitized for use with programs that could mix and match portions of published works to regurgitate a story based on snippets from the above. The same with published book covers. Lawsuits were filed, and the defense was the same as for Google Books.

Once books, art and photographs appeared online, a few thought they could use them without permission or payment.

The publisher had sent the "settlement website" but I didn't bother going to it. Figured I would just let them do whatever and not worry about it.

Youtube is the same - plenty of history 'documentaries' that just rob other people's photos and film footage from the internet without permission - yet Youtube allow this and actually reward them with payment for content. I know because I have seen my photos, that I have taken, of my objects, used by historian Mark Felton without my permission.

Ah Mark Felton..........................

I do make my words those of Chris....what a hell is that ugly kind-of Spitfire on the cover? And Jeeeesus.....are the Editors sleeping or is that a kind of joke-Comics "ABOUT" The BattleE (with two Es) of Britain?

Non-specialists and younger people might be fooled. That's the point. Even if only a small amount of money can be made, this will continue. If not, it will begin to disappear.
