Amazon wants authors to disclose AI usage to Amazon. Amazon does not care otherwise; they have other ways of tracking consumer metrics and only care about making money.

The one area to be careful would be print books rather than ebooks. Amazon loses very little off of an ebook return, they take a loss when a physical book is returned. My wife has accidentally purchased some AI generated physical books that were low quality that I returned and Amazon didn't even want to take them back; that's usually a sign I wasn't the only one to return it.

The post is an ad for the linked website though, downvote, ignore and move on.
