Her "Author vs AI" project saw her writing a book every week for eight months, producing 34 complete manuscripts without any technological assistance. This remarkable feat wasn't just about proving her capabilities as a writer, but about exploring the essence of human creativity in our rapidly evolving digital landscape.Alison McBain is the author behind Author Versus AI.
