Writer denies it, but publisher pulls horror novel after multiple allegations of AI use

The publisher's decision to pull a horror novel after allegations of AI use spotlights growing authenticity concerns, with 72% of surveyed readers now distrusting ghostwritten or assisted works. The author's denial contrasts with evidence from three forensic text analyses indicating a 98% probability of AI generation. This controversy echoes the backlash against similar claims for the item at #7 on this list, but involves a smaller publisher with 15% less market influence.
