“Problems”… how much is Amazon’s cut?
Comment on None of these people exist, but you can buy their books on Amazon anyway

Amazon has been having problems with books written by LLMs for almost a year, and it diesn’t appear to do anything against. For example:
AI Detection Startups Say Amazon Could Flag AI Books. It Doesn’t (Sep 2023)
A new nightmare for writers shows how AI deepfakes could upend the book industry—and Amazon isn’t helping (August 2023)
These are just two examples, you’ll find many more. But people keep buying there and support this business.

From your second link...
I don't think AI is the problem here. It's that I can write a book, claim George R. R. Martin is the author and Amazon won't fact check me.

I mean, both are problems.
