Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):Independent bookstores in Europe are receiving unusual bulk orders, and some booksellers worry the books could be linked to AI companies. One Irish bookstore reportedly received an order for around 5,000 books, many obscure titles not normally ordered in such quantities. Other bookstores have received orders worth €10,000 to €50,000. They are worried that the books could be bought, scanned, used as AI training data and then destroyed
