The Chicago Sun-Times’ “Best of Summer” section published a guide to summer reads that features real authors and fake books, including some generated by artificial intelligence. The article suggests reading Tidewater by Isabel Allende and The Last Algorithm by Andy Weir, two books that do not exist. Many of the books on the list are either fictional or written by different authors than those attributed to them. This incident raises questions about the role of AI in content creation and the accuracy of recommendations from major publications.
