"We are excited to introduce these interactive AI classics to the world," said Kaleeg Hainsworth, CEO of Legible. "I have been developing eBooks for twenty-five years, and nothing like this has ever been done for a global audience. With the introduction of our AI classics to our platform, we are witnessing the birth of a new publishing era, both in the innovative (and ethical) use of AI in a fully standard eBook, but also in Legible’s platform which is hosting these titles and showing the way for publishers to innovate and still be able to sell to a mass market internationally. This novel way of storytelling aligns with our mission to make reading more engaging and accessible to a global audience and bring greater value to our Unbound members every month."
