As AI tech companies increasingly buy and destroy books to feed to their AI models, Anna's Archive is calling for volunteers to help preserve them for the public record.

Lmao, I don’t see much point in talking with you, you’d be happily skipping around while books were being burned telling people it’s fine, there are plenty of other books, these ones aren’t theirs.

This literally isnt book burning though. it is recording and recycling of (one) copy of (a) or even each book. Not even the original. One copy of many of each. One that you didnt even care about it until now.

So you calling it book burning or comparing it to actual book burning is misinformation.

And it is you willfully wasting your time here trying to convince somoeone of a lie you're desperately trying to push here to control the emotion of others. Manipulation. A shit rage bait piece for attention and pandering to unnecessary anxiety and trying to depress other's no doubt.

So if I am annoying you by calling out this shitty faćade:

Good.
