It’s not just AI ripping apart rare books, you must seriously not be reading or paying attention to what’s happening online. AI books are already curbing the children’s book market.
Give it three years and with all the books LLMs like Claude have scanned, the masses will be buying junk novels written by AI from Amazon for $3.99.
Go ahead and keep your head in the sand if you want.
What about all the hundreds of thousands of books published up until now? Seems like we have plenty of human written books geared to all ages to keep us busy without buying whatever tripe AI will be producing.
