If I decide to self-publish a book what happens to the copyright? Is there a way to prevent others from claiming copyrights for a book published autonomously? Are there OS licenses specifically tuned for books?

You probably want the SA (share-alike) or NC-SA (non-commercial share-alike) but take a look and decide what suits you best.
From https://creativecommons.org/faq/#do-i-have-to-provide-my-name-can-i-ask-that-my-name-be-removed :
Don't go NC. Authors should be able to sell their work (and derivates too)
It's useful as it makes it harder for AI to use it. Derivates can still reach out to ask to be allowed to sell it
We shouldn't throw humans under the bus just to thwart AI. This is not the way.
I'm fine with making people email me if they want to sell derivatives of a creative work tho
And if you're dead or incarcerated or otherwise uncontactable?
Then I won't be suing for copyright infringement
