A new attack on the Royal Family by a damning book created by artificial intelligence was revealed by the Mail on Sunday last night.
Fake AI memoir sold by Amazon included descriptions of how MI6 killed Princess Diana in a 'premeditated murder' and claims that Kate took illegal drugs .
Last week, the internet giant revealed that an offensive AI book about King Charles' cancer was being sold on its website, prompting an infuriated Buckingham Palace to seek legal advice. received criticism.
All books have since been removed, but Amazon has declined to reveal whether the author's account has been suspended or whether the platform will take additional steps to stop the sale of such fake books. Rejected.
Now, MoS has discovered more AI books that appear to contain offensive slurs about the royal family and violate Amazon's own content guidelines.
Although these books are created by AI software, they are written alongside legitimate biographies.
Princess Diana's book does not have an identified author, but is claimed to be part of a series called the Complete Guide Edition, which covers topics from D-Day to Barbie dolls.
“It goes without saying that MI6 killed Princess Diana, which is inflammatory nonsense,” said former military intelligence official Philip Ingram.
Another fake book is “Prince William Biography: The Fascinating Autobiography of the Future King''. The piece concocts outlandish falsehoods about the Princess of Wales during her gap year in Florence.
The book was posted on the website in May 2023, but has not been removed due to Amazon's “active” process aimed at ensuring content guidelines are followed.
Her third book, The Biography and Death of Queen Elizabeth II: Causes of Queen Elizabeth's Death, was published the day after her death. Some of the words that AI generates include lies that hurt people.
Hours after being contacted by the Ministry of Justice, Amazon removed the two books, but Prince William's biography was still on sale at the time it went to press.
“We have content guidelines that govern which books can be listed for sale, including not allowing AI-generated content that creates a poor customer experience,” an Amazon spokesperson said.
They added that the company has taken “proactive and reactive steps to evaluate content” and has removed a number of titles that “violate our guidelines.”
