LLMs are really crappy at writing books right now.

However there is zero evidence they will not get better, in fact they are getting exponentially better all the time at all tasks which are getting measured.

My bet is on LLMs soon being able to put out mediocre fiction, and then not much later great fiction, indistinguishable from the best authors out there.

This is the first I hear about the changes being iPhone-only, where did you read they are not coming to iPad?

edit: ah looks like some 4y ago Apple switched to a separate iPadOS. Used to be that iOS was both for phones and tablets.

Not sure what you mean, the announced changes are pretty much the best thing ever to happen to the Apple eco-system. The only bad part about them is they’re restricted to EU.
