A note about AI-generated content
Books published under the BookBildr imprint must contain original human-written text and human-created illustrations. We do not accept books containing AI-generated or substantially AI-generated text or artwork for BookBildr publishing packages.

That draws a very clean line between the two sides of the site: BookBildr will help people self-publish AI-assisted books, but BookBildr itself won’t publish them.
