And yet, it feels like they’re onto something, even if it isn’t “This is why you should give us money.”
Many bestsellers in certain verticals (like self-help and business hagiographies) are highly formulaic and not particularly information-dense.
What makes them bestsellers has very little to do with the writing, and a lot to do with hustle, marketing, and promotion.
I can accept that Generative AI can write such a book for me. But then again… The writing isn’t the hard part.
