The conversation was honest. It covered real concerns and real opportunities. And the people in the room were not cheerleaders for technology. They were editors and project managers and executives who work with books every single day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The webinar was called AI and its Opportunities in Publishing Operations. It was part of a semi-annual series put together by Westchester Publishing Services and co-hosted with Publishers Weekly. What came out of it is worth paying attention to if you are an author or anyone else who cares about where the book industry is headed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What the Publishing Industry Actually Knows About AI Right Now<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Many Publishers Are Actually Using AI<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The webinar opened with data that grounded the whole conversation in reality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jarin Pintana, a project manager with the Green Book Alliance, walked through findings from a 2025 survey on AI use across the North American book industry. The survey was conducted by the Book Industry Study Group and what it found was genuinely interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just under half of the people surveyed said they were already using AI in some form. The tasks they used it for most often included administrative work data analysis, marketing editorial tasks and metadata management. Larger companies reported the highest levels of use.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What the Industry Is Most Worried About<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But here is the part that deserves attention. Even with that level of adoption the concerns are significant. The three biggest worries the industry expressed were about controlling copyrighted materials, the risk of AI generated content flooding retail spaces and a lack of transparency from authors about whether they used AI in their work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Librarians in the survey also pushed back. They said the pressure to carefully evaluate every piece of content before putting it into circulation has become a real burden.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pintana put it simply. The industry is adopting AI potentially faster than it is becoming comfortable with it. That is an honest and important observation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What AI Is Actually Doing Inside Publishing Companies<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI Is Already in the Room Whether You Notice It or Not<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">George Walkley, one of the leading voices on how artificial intelligence affects publishing, picked up where the survey left off.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He made a point that felt true to a lot of people in the room. Much of the time people are now using AI without really thinking about it. It has been built into tools and platforms so quietly that the decision of whether to use it has already been made for many workers before they ever arrive at their desk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Walkley also brought in a global perspective. Surveys of the Latin American book market show a far higher proportion of AI users compared to North America. Usage varies considerably depending on where in the world you are and what kind of content you are producing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Publishing Companies Need Clear AI Policies Now<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His most important point though was about policy. Most publishing companies do not have one when it comes to AI. That absence creates a problem. When there is no clear guidance people make their own decisions. Some of those decisions will be good. Others will create problems that companies have to deal with later. Walkley argued that open communication and clear policies are not optional at this point. They are necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He also addressed something that authors and publishing professionals worry about more than almost anything else. He said that in his experience working with more than three hundred publishers AI is not taking away jobs. He described it as a hand rather than a brain. It can help complete tasks that humans define but it should not be the one deciding what those tasks are in the first place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Technology Can Support the People Behind the Books<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making Work Human in a World Full of Automation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David Stafford who leads consumer experience at Dropbox brought the conversation to a practical level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His core idea was about making work human. Technology should serve the people using it. It should simplify things. It should make communication easier and make it possible for teams to do more without burning out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pointed to how a platform like Dropbox gives people a clear and tangible way to make data easier to access, easier to store and easier to share. That kind of clarity around non-creative tasks can actually reduce anxiety in the workplace because people understand what the tool is doing and why.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protecting Creative Rights While Embracing New Tools<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His closing argument was about protection. AI creates new opportunities to keep working together as industry professionals and as technology providers. But that work has to protect the creative industry. Intellectual property rights have to be maintained. That is not negotiable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hard Questions the Industry Is Still Working Through<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Environmental Costs AI Resistance and Content Vetting<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The webinar ended with an open question and answer session that got into some of the more difficult territory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The panelists talked about the environmental costs of AI which rarely get mentioned in conversations about publishing. They addressed what happens when employees push back against new technology and how managers should handle that. They talked about the growing responsibility of librarians and booksellers to evaluate content before it reaches readers. And they were direct about the need to fact-check AI outputs because the technology makes mistakes that can look convincing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Case for Thoughtful Experimentation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All three speakers encouraged experimentation. Not reckless adoption but thoughtful testing to figure out where AI genuinely helps and where it creates more problems than it solves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stafford gave what might be the best piece of advice from the entire event. Focus on the specific workflow you are trying to improve. Think about where you want to drive efficiency. Consider how AI can help a smaller team do more without losing what makes their work worth doing. And above all protect human creativity and human judgment because that is what the whole industry is built on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What This Means for Authors Working With a Publisher Today<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Right Publishing Partner Makes All the Difference<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The conversation from that webinar points to something every author should understand going into a publishing relationship in 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best publishers are not ignoring AI and they are not handing everything over to it either. They are thinking carefully about where it helps and where it does not. They are building policies. They are protecting the rights of the authors they work with. And they are keeping human judgment at the center of every important decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Rockefeller Publishing Puts Authors First<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Rockefeller Publishing that is exactly how we approach our work with authors across the United States.
