Comment on Someone Used AI to Write an Unauthorized Biography of Meparent

Unsurprisingly, Wikipedia does not take this position, and is in fact pretty skeptical of self-published and especially AI-generated work. Its guidelines do say that "books published by respected publishing houses" are more likely to be reliable sources, but that's obviously different from having an ISBN, and of course such books are not AI-generated.

The primary sources thing is a different matter; primary and secondary sources serve different purposes.
