I think the problem is that even if you have a "no training" license AI companies will just ignore it and you'll be left having to take legal action.

If the big publishing firms couldn't win an action against Meta for using pirated copies of their books you probably have no chance either.

It may seem impossible on an individual level, but collectively it may make sense to take them on, ala death by a thousand paper cuts style.

If content with that license reaches critical mass, a law firm could sue for many at once.

Do you believe this critical mass would likely exceed all books ever published within the current copyright window?

Do you think book publishers are somehow less financially able to muster a legal response than open source coders in their spare time?

Books don't have an explicit no-LLM license.

They have a very explicit "No unauthorized copies or transfer to other media" and they still got shafted.
