This is currently an Amazon 'best seller'.

It was published on August 10th. The fires didnt start until the 8th, and didnt get bad until late in the day and into the 9th.

How, in less than a day, is a book created and published? It's almost as if they have these outlines ready to go, for any natural disaster, to push climate change. They just plug-n-play the subject, and whalla 'Climate Change Disaster'.

Fire and Fury: The Story of the Maui Fire and its Implications for Climate Change is a gripping and eye-opening account of one of the most devastating wildfires in Hawaii's history, and how it reveals the urgent need to address the global climate crisis.

I thought about that. But even AI generated, it would be hard to turn a book around that fast, from scratch.

Chat GPT. It's a thing in the publishing world. Expect a lot of filler books this decade.

Since it is really all about pushing the climate change cult, the book was likely already written, just waiting to plug in dates, times, and locations.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

The Maui fire is a 'milestone' on their project checklist.

again though...ChatGPT (or the other formats) still need information to draw from. There was little info available yet. And even if they put together a book, it would need to be Heavily edited, to be publishable. They had this one up within 24 hours.

Even with AI, it would be very difficult to publish a readable book within 24 hours.

This is what I think as well.

you could plug a news article summary into chat gpt, ask it to write a book about it, and have a final product ready in a couple hours. for self published books on Amazon like this, it's not exactly like there's a rigorous editing process. it's a cash grab, they don't care if it's readable as long as people buy it.

Especially considering the other quantity of books the same "author" has listed, I'd say it's AI related. Reminds me a lot of the various "science" related youtube channels that rely on AI created content.

The same type who would name their son Richard Head.

I wonder if Miles has siblings, Kidney and Gall?

I was talking to a retired, professional, educated man about this last week only a day or two after the fires started and he suggested Biden hadn't commented on it because it was planned and executed by the governemnt. I though, whoa, but now, maybe he's right.

THIS!!!

The "climate change" narrative was already written and how we have to change aspect of our lives. They only added a couple pages on this event, which could be done in a short time!

Chat GPT or other AI would have a ****load of X affects climate change and these are the implications material to draw from…

That fire had nothing to do with so-called climate change.

Yes, ChatGPT and similar AI language models have been used to assist in various stages of novel writing. Authors and writers have employed these models to generate ideas, brainstorm plot points, create dialogue, and even draft sections of their novels. Some writers find these AI models helpful for overcoming writer's block or generating novel concepts.

However, it's important to note that while AI can provide creative suggestions and assist in the writing process, it's not a substitute for the unique human touch that authors bring to their work. Many aspects of novel writing, such as deep emotional resonance, complex character development, and nuanced storytelling, rely heavily on human intuition and understanding.
