I don't mean to disparage this particular instance at all, as it seems pretty great. But I wonder if the rise of llms is going to make scams that sounds a lot like this much easier in the future. I think at the moment it's hard to make something really sound like a particular author without a lot of work, but that will probably change in the future.

I imagine it will be a lot like other pieces of art where the provenance is really critical. If it cannot be traced properly back to the originator, then it will always be viewed as dubious. With that said, as a person largely ignorant of the field, I'd wager this is probably true now, irrespective the rise of LLMs.
