Here are a few stories to read this Monday morning.

  • Hachette has dropped a book following accusations that it was created using generative AI.
  • Here’s an interesting proposal to discourage the use of generative AI in academic papers.
  • High stakes Scrabble almost sounds like an oxymoron, but it’s a real sport.
  • Robin Philips brings our attention to scammers in the UK who claim to help authors “register” their copyright.
  • Did you hear about the exhibit at Yale about typos?
  • Sandra Wendel has updated her book, Cover to Cover: What First-Time Authors Need to Know About Editing with a full chapter on how to use AI.

P.S. Here’s some good news for me. I just got the confirmation email that I paid off the last of my student loans last month.
