Sigh... Well behold counterexamples:
- https://stanforddaily.com/2026/10/27/professors-books-pirated-to-train-claude/
- https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/meta-staff-torrented-nearly-82tb-of-pirated-books-for-ai-training-court-records-reveal-copyright-violations
I would like to have know your perspective on this if you don't mind...

The Stanford Daily

Anthropic illegally trained Claude with Stanford professors’ books

The AI company pirated at least 10 Stanford academics’ work in a $1.5 billion copyright settlement.

@deltabase @bleeptrack "piracy" is used here to mean information replication, claude isn't that.
