Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing publishing, but much of the conversation has created more confusion than clarity. Authors are hearing mixed messages while publishers, retailers, and courts are still defining the rules in real time.
This practical, balanced session explores where AI may have limited value, where it can create real risk for authors, and how careless use can affect credibility, reader trust, retailer acceptance, and book sales.
This is not a tools demo or a pro-versus-anti AI debate. It is a clear-eyed conversation for authors who want to stay informed and make smart decisions in a rapidly changing landscape.
You’ll learn:
• The current state of AI in publishing
• Key legal and industry developments to watch
• How retailers and distributors are responding
• Common risks authors often overlook
• How to spot signs of AI-generated writing and imagery
• Practical ways to protect your work, rights, and future opportunities
