Funny how the tech broligarchs (and their enablers) keep claiming they can’t afford to pay creators for the work they’ve so brazenly filched from all of us… #MetaBookThieves #DoTheWriteThing

Meta stole my work and the work of my colleagues. Rulebooks like Star Trek Adventures + Fallout RPG were scraped by LibGen and Meta trained its AI model on them. #MetaBookThieves #DoTheWriteThing #MakeItFair

I think all of the authors should demand free ads from Meta since they decided to steal our work. Why should we pay them for anything since it’s cool to just take what you want? #metabookthieves #dothewritething

I was horrified to find EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY BOOKS had been plundered without my consent by the Meta AI book thieves. It's a violation & is wrong in every way. Please support us by signing this @societyofauthors.bsky.social petition and get them to #DoTheWriteThing!

The Unbelievable Scale of AI’s Pirated-Books Problem Meta pirated millions of books to train its AI. Search through them here.

To my astonishment, one of my #books has also been used to train #Facebook’s AI plagiarism “model”, so even those of us at the bottom of the food chain are not spared from #tech billionaire avarice. 🙄
