They aren't buying every copy of one book. They're buying one copy of every book. Other copies still exist.
Ok then, what’s the issue

This is people panicking over nothing. Even if the book is rare there are still copies out there.
The headline alludes to a one copy book being destroyed. Click bait

It is an attempt at a copyright loophole for fair use.
I don’t doubt this is the initial intent. I just doubt that it is the final result.

What’s the difference between buying rare books, such as early print editions, and those in the public domain?

Don’t worry. They are only stealing GOOD ideas. Relax.

Because it is the law.

Yeah I had this conversation with my brother recently. He’s a software engineer. I sent him a paper I’m working on and he told me copy and pasted it into AI and I got pissed. I don’t want AI stealing my ideas. I think there will be a lot of lawsuits sooner than later about AI’s uncredited plagiarism of what users input.
I think it will be the opposite. It will be increasingly hard for education institutions to pick up on plagiarism or original thought. The only way going forward will be from oral essays, exams, etc., I mean at that point why do you need a lot of college grads as AI can take there place in the desk portion of their jobs. The future will be interesting and scary.

They do this regardless of the rarity of books.

The movie "The Book of Eli" comes to mind.
Very underrated movie btw with twist at the end.
Is this really happening? I guess we need to get out and buy the classics.
We are heading into some scary times with AI being controlled by leftist that want to control everything, debt will collapse the dollar, socialist and communist on the rise.

The Sumerians did it as well as the Mayans. Rinse & repeat.
