You sweated and pour your time and creative energy into something and it has real value as IP and you hand it off to get it formatted or just checked, what could possibility go wrong.

AI now can put unseen marks into your creations and after working with Claude AI and watch it move files without my knowledge, I know first hand they can do some real damage.

I will never let AI write an ebook for me, I have the cover made by AI and I feel bad about that.

In farming there already have been cases of using GMO seeds to try to claim ownership, I heard of an offspring in the cattle business saying the genetics were being created in the lab.

So who owns the IP now and in the future.

Do everything you can to protect your IP from here on out, if you are the creator you are the owner.

Do not let AI touch your most valuable work and think twice if you let AI create something for you.
