Authors warn of AI generated imitations of their books on Amazon

Groves is a clinical herbalist from New Hampshire who has published books sold on Amazon for more than a decade. She recently discovered knockoff books that closely resemble her work.

One of Groves’ books is titled Body Into Balance: An Herbal Guide to Holistic Self-Care. A different book — Body Into Balance Diet Cookbook — Inspired by Maria Noël Groves — appeared for sale online, but that is not Groves work. She did not authorize use of her name either.

"I don’t love that it could affect my own book sales, but that’s really not my big concern. My big concern is the safety of the public,” Groves said.

Moccia said she found potentially dangerous misinformation in the copycat books.
