AI Didn’t Kill the Author. You Did.

Is AI the villain in the author’s downfall—or are readers, publishers, and even fellow writers part of the problem? In this fiery episode of Pros Talking Prose, Troy and Stacey unpack the emotional, ethical, and legal minefield of AI-generated content in publishing. From TikTok's “100% Human” trend to copyright battles and the philosophical death of the author, we ask the hard questions:
What is authorship in the age of machines?
Can a bot tell a human story—or just mimic one?
And what happens when you can’t tell the difference?
Prepare to get fired up, challenged, and maybe just a little uncomfortable.
This isn’t just about AI. It’s about what readers demand, what creators surrender, and where the soul of storytelling really lives.
