The study says successful AI books reuse rare phrases from existing books more often than human titles

The thread adds two important claims about AI-written books:
- Successful AI-heavy books tend to reuse rare phrases that already appeared in published books, more often than successful non-AI books do.
- The authors connect the findings to the ongoing Kadrey v. Meta litigation, arguing the results speak to market dilution: even if the books are not high quality, they can still hurt human authors by flooding the market.
The main takeaway is that scale, not quality, may be enough for AI-generated books to create measurable commercial harm.
