No royalty contract is getting an author a thousand bucks per sale. If you have to wildly exaggerate to make your point, then the point isn’t compelling.

Books have a resale market. Every “lost sale” isn’t necessarily of a new purchase from a bookstore or Amazon.

Copyright has a place. Rent-seeking authors attacking LLM owners is not a sympathetic case. Said authors are demanding to have their ideas relegated to unknown backwaters. It makes the authors worse off. It makes the community poorer. Cui bono?

We are not talking about a single sale. We are talking about millions of books.
