KDP AI Generated VS AI Assisted

I delved into the recent Amazon KDP content update, specifically exploring the intriguing world of AI-generated versus AI-assisted content. I'm Jenny Hanson Lane, an 18-month veteran in the KDP publishing game, and I'm here to share some insights.

1. Amazon's Latest Move: Amazon made waves on September 6th with a significant update to its content tab for book uploads. The platform is now actively collecting data on the use of AI in content creation through a survey. Exciting, right?

2. Decoding AI Dynamics: In the video, I break down the difference between AI-generated and AI-assisted content. AI-assisted involves using AI tools to enhance content you've created, while AI-generated content is purely the work of artificial intelligence.

3. Amazon's Curiosity about AI Assistance: Interestingly, Amazon seems particularly interested in AI-assisted content. The recent classification changes aim to distinguish between the two types, sparking a new phase in the KDP content landscape.

4. The Human Touch in Copyright: I emphasize the crucial role of the human touch in copyright. The law, dating back to the 1920s, is designed to protect content that originates from human intellect. It's a powerful force that shouldn't be underestimated.

5. Practical Tips for Authors: To help you navigate this new terrain, I share practical tips. Whether it's sketching, tracing, or writing content before employing AI tools, maintaining that human touch is key. It's not just about creativity; it's about safeguarding your work and ensuring lasting copyright protection.

If you're curious about how to make the most of AI-assisted content without compromising your creative ownership, check out my video for a deep dive. Let's embrace the evolving landscape of AI in KDP and keep our creativity uniquely human.
