you guys have to see this giant American Type Founders catalog from 1900. it's basically everything a printer could order at the time, and OBV a lot of it is very 1900, but the decorative elements section is such a good source of shapes and ornaments. definitely stealing a few ideas from here hehe https://t.co/6nlKYa1Mkx

🦔AI companies are bulk-buying rare books, scanning them through high-speed machines that cut the spines off, and shredding the originals. A service called ISBNdb facilitates orders of up to a million books and keeps buyers anonymous. Pre-2022 books are premium because they're free of AI-generated text. A federal judge ruled the practice is fair use because eliminating the original means only one copy exists at a time. Anthropic hired the former head of Google Books partnerships to obtain "all the books in the world."

My Take
This got to me. A bookseller told 404 Media that rare books with almost no surviving copies are being fed into this pipeline. Books that survived wars, fires, and centuries of handling are being shredded so an AI can learn to write a better marketing email.
ISBNdb's website literally says "'AI company destroys two million books' is not a headline that generates sympathy," and they still built an entire business around making it happen quietly. They offer NDAs as a feature. They coach clients to call it "digital preservation."

I've covered AI companies scraping the internet, torrenting libraries, and stealing music. This is worse because it's irreversible. You can re-upload a website. You can reprint a bestseller. You can't replace the last three copies of an 18th-century botanical text once someone shreds them for training data. And the judge said it's legal. So it's going to accelerate.
"We shred rare books and offer NDAs so nobody finds out" is a legitimate business model in 2026. What a timeline.

Este sitio tiene 16.000 personas conectadas a la vez haciéndose pasar por ChatGPT para no tener que usarlo.

Toda tecnología nueva tiene su resaca. La de la IA ya arrancó.

La web se llama, traducido, "tu basura de IA me aburre". La armó un programador y explotó a 50 millones de visitas en una semana. Escribís o dibujás lo que necesitás, pero adentro no hay ningún modelo: te contesta otra persona al azar que se hace pasar por la máquina. Tiene 75 segundos para responder pero, si querés una respuesta más trabajada, activás "modo pensamiento" y al humano del otro lado le dan el doble de tiempo.

Es un fenómeno muy particular porque, aprovechando el anonimato, mucha gente hace consultas personales y, del otro lado, un montón de desconocidos con ganas de ayudar gratis. Sin perfil, sin reputación, sin estrellitas, sin ganar nada más que el crédito para preguntar ellos. Por una vez en internet, nadie te está vendiendo nada.

Con la euforia de pedirle absolutamente todo a la IA, lo que falta a veces es tener a alguien del otro lado.

Ese internet viejo, el de los foros y los desconocidos ayudándose porque sí.

@kellytheboss7 Using a classic wristwatch works wonders for this! Especially those water resistant casios, never ever take it off and gain some control back over time 💪

I have to add my voice to the chorus: there is nothing more insulting, disempowering, or a surer sign that you’re working with hacks (& there are many, wedged into middle management in AAA) than receiving an AI moodboard as a concept artist, and I need to talk about it

@GarrettPetersen Yeah I can confirm, I teach uni level and only a few students know how to properly use a mouse or keyboard; you have no idea how many times I've seen the students press f then 5 🙃

In Fahrenheit 451, the abolition of reading began with tech companies simplifying books into summaries that you could read in five minutes. Because people no longer engaged with the texts, they forgot how to think. Then came the book-burnings.
