    It’s not illegal for a human to learn from the contents of a book, so why the fuck it’s illegal for an AI?

      Because the thing referred to as AI (which is definitely not AI) is simply strip mining the book to shit out “content.”

      It is not reading, understanding, or learning from the book. It is using it to sell services for its masters.

      An author should control their work. They should be able to decide for themselves whether or not they want to help big tech sell garbage to idiots.
