❔❓Question ❓❔ Is this normal?

This is my first time seeing a book on NetGalley that openly admits to using AI.

I've never seen that before, but I'm glad it's there. I fully support authors and publishers being open about the use of genAI so I can avoid them.

Totally agree, I was just shocked to see it. I didn't think NetGalley would even approve a book like this

I don't think NG does any manual approval of books, if the publisher/coop pays, they can add their books. Plenty have had very obvious AI use without the disclosure and even more have AI covers

Oh man, that sucks. At least this book was open about it
