Are AI-written books getting published?

If they start out-competing humans, is that bad? According to most naysayers, they can't do anything original.

Are people asking the AI for books? And then hoping it will spit it out a human-written book word for word?

Personally, I strongly believe that the aesthetic skills of humanity are one of our most advanced faculties — we are nowhere close to replacing them with fully-automated output, AGI or no.
