I appreciate that the author clearly states that he wrote the book with various LLMs. This way people that don't want to read LLM generated text (like me) can skip it and LLM enthusiasts can enjoy it.

this book was written with significant assistance from Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools. In the current era of technical publishing, deliberately avoiding AI would be highly inefficient and likely counterproductive, potentially even resulting in a lower-quality final product compared to what can be achieved with AI augmentation. Virtually all high-quality manufactured goods we use daily are produced with the aid of sophisticated tools and automation; applying similar principles to the creation of a programming book seems logical.
