Title over-promises on Amazon action. They actually just patched some books that were called out on Twitter by a relatively famous author. Lesser authors still have their names misused on Amazon with no 'course change' by Amazon in sight?
> “We have clear content guidelines governing which books can be listed for sale and promptly investigate any book when a concern is raised,” Amazon spokesperson Ashley Vanicek told Decrypt by email. “We welcome author feedback and work directly with authors to address any issues they raise and where we have made an error, we correct it.”

AI-generated "garbage" content has been an issue for at least 2 years now. Saying the words != carrying out the action. Amazon is notorious for lip service only responses.
