AI companies are secretly buying, scanning, and destroying millions of physical books to train their models, permanently locking human knowledge inside private corporate servers. Anna’s Archive is urgently calling on volunteers worldwide to scan and upload books to their shadow library before this cultural heritage disappears forever.
Damn that’s a lot of waiting. There was another device that just MRI’d books where they were, but no, ‘AI’ companies need to rip books apart to scan them. FU.
No less frustrating but I believe destruction is a required part of the process so the AI companies can say they still only have one “copy” of the book.
Oh like they care.
No, it’s far more crass: destroying the book makes scanning easier and faster.
Yah, exclusive content, or just rats watching the ship go down while burning books. FU AI bros playing the largest scam in history…
