The AI biz is certainly destructive. But they're shredding *one copy* each of these books. The Library of Alexandria contained unique manuscripts.

@mrundkvist@archaeo.social @ErikUden@mastodon.de except they especially shred rare books, where only few copies are left. A lot of those will be gone forever. https://byteiota.com/ai-is-buying-rare-books-and-shredding-them-heres-why/

@mrundkvist@archaeo.social When the AI biz is buying up manuscripts by the yard, do you think they check if any of them are rare? They don't. It is certain that some of those will be unique. @ErikUden@mastodon.de
