I have gone in and changed mine already as in the policy it asks readers to report any content they feel is not stating. Therefore it seems better to be upfront rather than wait for someone to report it and possibly lose my account. Thanks for the info

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

understandable!

[@therisingphoenixlovedbynat121]

Girl thank you for making this video. This one question is the only reason why I have yet to to push publish.

[@michaelemanuel140]

Me Too!

[@arialdemi]

this was very helpful! thanks for keeping us updated.

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Glad it was helpful! I got you!

[@alice-mariecambridge5147]

Thank you for sharing. Great information, getting ready to work on some new content

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

sounds exciting! 😁

[@voicingtheunspokenpodcaster]

I have a question. Aren’t you still protected if you use AI generated content such as Midjourney or something similar to Midjourney as long as the TOS states that if you have a active paid subscription then you are allowed to commercially sell the images you create through the image prompts?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Both platforms (Midjourney and KDP) have their own TOS so you'd just want to be sure you follow the rules of both to be safe.

[@Accuface2000]

Amazon has no way of knowing how much AI content you have, they are just collecting data.

[@passiveincomewithnora]

Great video, thanks for letting us know. Just subbed.

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Thank you! & thanks for subbing!

[@s.l.videoproductions2858]

Confused. So If the majority of my images are from a site like Pixiby, is that considered AI-generated? and Etsy ready to up-load books? TIA

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

You won’t know unless they disclose it or if you ask them. This is why I suggest hiring an illustrator or creating your own.

[@kaliapatrice]

Thanks for the information!

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

You're welcome!

[@spirituallylovingme-11]

Hi I have a question is it safe to use images on Etsy if I didn't create it

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

With any images that you don't create or hire an illustrator you'd want to be sure of the rights and now you'd also want to see if the seller is willing to disclose if they used AI to generate the images so that you can check the correct box when uploading.

[@spirituallylovingme-11]

@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial thankyou what is Al

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

@@spirituallylovingme-11 In short, AI, or Artificial Intelligence, refers to the development of computer systems and software that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. You can do a google search for ChatGPT and Midjourney. Those are 2 examples that people have been using to help with books.

[@Cappy114]

My thing is this though, if it’s a good book why should it matter? I used it to edit my book.

[@alice-mariecambridge5147]

Coach, Have you created a video on Midjourney?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

not yet 😀

[@howellhappy9407]

Hello, Thank you for your input. May I ask, all the textual content of my book is entirely my own original work, and I have also handled the editing and proofreading myself. However, when translating the book into other languages, I utilized AI tools. Given my situation, which option should I choose? I truly appreciate your help!

[@HulooLeeby]

I have the same qustions with you. Waiting the answers!

[@BrendonJaredJacobs]

Do you get penalized if you have one AI image in it?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

At this time they are just using it to collect data...

[@BrendonJaredJacobs]

@@LatoyaNicoleOfficial Amazon changes their minds on things on the fly. Hope there isn't a long term plot on their side like banning AI then coming out with their own AI instead. My book literally has one image that is AI.

[@juanitatreadwell7240]

Why have AI-generated movies and games not been in violation of copyrights? Why only AI-generated books?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Currently, AI content is acceptable as long as you abide by all of their other content rules. They are not currently saying that it is a violation of copyrights.

[@Jason-ql4hs]

I am close to finishing the self-publishing KDP process for my young adult fantasy novel. I have not used any AI on my interior pages. However, I did pay a graphic artist to create my book cover design. The graphic artist used AI to create the book cover I purchased. I presume I still have to check yes for AI, correct?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Congrats on finishing up your book! Yes, you'd want to disclose that AI was used.

[@geniabrown7859]

Good job!

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Thanks!

Hmm. I sketched and painted an A.I. picture I loved. The scene is the same but the colours are completely different. I am going to use my watercolour as a book cover. Do you think because i painted/ reproduced an A.I picture, using my own art supplies, by hand using paint brushes, into a paper art pad that I should declare its A.I assisted? IMO the only assistance I had was seeing the A.I picture, so reproduced my version of it using my watercolours. It didnt even hit anything technical, until I copied it and put it onto facebook for comments from friends. If Amazon would think its an A.I assisted just because I saw it, then WTF? We'd all be assisted cos we dont know where the pictures we see are from, right.

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Hi! According to KDP "If you used an AI-based tool to brainstorm and generate ideas, but ultimately created the text or images yourself, this is considered "AI-assisted" and not “AI-generated.” Hope this helps!

[@user-vk5pn6ge9u]

I just started using canva. Would they be considered AI generated?

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

Canva incorporates some automation and design assistance features, but it does not primarily rely on AI-generated content. What are you using Canva to do?

[@user-vk5pn6ge9u]

I am using it for coloring pages and journals

[@LatoyaNicoleOfficial]

@@user-vk5pn6ge9u they are fine to use to format your book but I would watch this video before you plan to use their elements/images in your book(s). kzbin.info/www/bejne/en2upX5-jtqFhs0si=fPvrwAtBpWRM5ci_
