<br>"Tech-Splaining for Dummies" (terrific title) bears my name and my image on its cover, and it has glowing evaluations.<br> |

<br>A [paperback](https://theslowlorisproject.com) copy of your own 240-page long [best-seller expenses](http://experienciacortazar.com.ar) ₤ 26. The company uses its own [AI](http://git.liuhung.com) tools to [produce](http://www.entwicklungshilfe-afrika.de) them, based on an open source large language model.<br> |

<br>I'm not asking you to buy my book. Actually you can't - just Janet, who created it, can purchase any more copies.<br> |

<br>There is presently no barrier to anyone producing one in anybody's name, - although Mr Mashiach states there are guardrails around abusive content.
