AI’s Book Hunger? A Storeowner’s Warning | Texas News

Suspecting AI companies may be buying books to scan and discard them for training models, he’s forced to confront a deeper question: Who decides which books survive? As rare titles vanish through resale or digital extraction, he wonders what’s lost when the physical and cultural record fades—before AI even gets its hands on them.
