I'm wondering if authors are making the same mistakes that the music industry did with Napster and kazaa. Using AI has led to more book purchases for me. If I discover and enjoy a book via AI I'm more inclined to buy it. The cats out of the bag, so pet him.

Just look at the state of the music industry.

Most people are not buying more books because of AI and no court would entertain this logic truly.

Can you share more about how you sample books with AI?

[adingus]

I don't really sample them, but if I want to know more about a subject I will normally ask for a book recommendation to go along with it.

It can tell you about authors, books, useful techniques, etc. If it cites references, that can generate page views on their site ir sales. It can also replace that, though, with AI supplier benefiting commercially.
