The report mentioned that ChatGPT only spent 7 hours collecting information and data, and wrote 135 pages of text in English. Afterwards, the South Korean translation software Papago completed the Korean translation in 2 hours, and handed it over to the AI Korean checking tool jointly developed by the AI Lab of Pusan University and the South Korean startup Nara Info Tech to assist in proofreading and correction. Finally, Shutterstock AI, an American AI image generation company, completed the cover design of the book.

However, some analysts pointed out that the books published by AI are likely to involve copyright infringement, which will also lead to disputes over the attribution of profits generated by AI-generated content. AI writers such as ChatGPT will soon become major players in the book publishing market, but sensitive legal issues such as copyright must be resolved first, said the editor-in-chief of a South Korean publishing company. “It’s time for the government to seriously formulate laws and regulations on the ethics and capabilities of AI software,” said Park Yong-soo, chief executive of the Korea Publishers Association.
