I was the second featured Creative Commoner decades ago and I have published all my books using Creative Commons share and share alike, no commercial reuse for the last few decades.
I haven’t been considering AI training use to violate my use of this license, but I suppose it does. When I have some free time I think I will switch the license on my books to the CC license that permits commercial reuse.
I think there are (at least) 2 important things here:
AI training web scrapers should respect robots.txt, ai.txt, etc. files associated with content.
Privacy issues are a severe problem, and privacy and security issues should be ‘top of mind.’
