It’s a dynamic similar to telemarketers versus robocallers or spam. Bad books generated by humans have a cost in time and effort to create them, whereas ai-generated bad books have essentially no downside for whatever organization is pumping them out. Eliminating the barrier to entry of authoring a book also eliminates consequences for failure and as the cost to do a thing drops towards zero the frequency of that thing getting done will skyrocket. Eventually the signal to noise ratio becomes too poor and people simply reject the medium.
The theory of infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters and infinite time focuses on the production of the works and kinda ignores the poor bastards who have to read that shit.
It doesn’t sound like a good sign that the vibrant competition the defendant is referencing is something the judge has literally never heard of.
