Authors Guild Launches Human Authored Certification
Quote from Michael Kozlowski on 2 February 2025, 5:37 AMHundreds of thousands of e-books are submitted to anyone through self-publishing platforms such as Kindle Direct Publishing, Kobo Writing Life, Nook Press, and Smashwords. AI writes a large segment of these books, polluting a good ecosystem. The Authors Guild is looking to counteract AI with a new certification system that lets everyone know that a real author wrote this.
Human Authored is a project of the Authors Guild that allows authors to certify that a human created their book. “Human Authored” means that the book's text was written by a human and not generated by AI, except for minimal, trivial uses, such as AI applications that check spelling and grammar, brainstorm, or research.
The Guild’s Human Authored certification allows authors to distinguish their work in an increasingly AI-saturated market. Currently, certification is only available for Authors Guild members and for books by a single author. Human Authored certifications are listed in a public database where anyone can verify a book’s human origins.
