Meta AI book scraping: 'We need to speak up', say authors Authors say their books have been taken without permission and used to train Meta's AI systems.

After an investigation found Meta used a database of pirated books to train its AI models, authors are starting to fight back. Writers are demanding that governments intervene against LLMs (large language models) training on their creative content without compensation. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The good people at @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social also published an interview with me (written by former BBC journalist @elcurwen.bsky.social) over the weekend. It gives you more of an insight into how @subruria.com came into being, and why I work in the way that I do.
