Microsoft has been sued for AI it created because authors of books claim their books were used without permission, as a training material

https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/microsoft-sued-by-authors-over-use-books-ai-training-2025-06-25/

Kai Bird, Jia Tolentino, Daniel Okrent and several others alleged that Microsoft used pirated digital versions of their books to teach its AI to respond to human prompts. Their lawsuit, filed in New York federal court on Tuesday, is one of several high-stakes cases brought by authors, news outlets and other copyright holders against tech companies including Meta Platforms, Anthropic and Microsoft-backed OpenAI over alleged misuse of their material in AI training. The writers alleged in the complaint that Microsoft used a collection of nearly 200,000 pirated books to train Megatron.

Meta escaped a first-of-its-kind copyright lawsuit from a group of authors who alleged the tech giant hoovered up millions of copyrighted books without permission to train its generative AI model called Llama.
San Francisco federal Judge Vince Chhabria ruled Wednesday that Meta's decision to use the books for training is protected under copyright law's fair use defense, but he cautioned that his opinion is more a reflection on the authors' failure to litigate the case effectively.

Cool places, at most an hour and a half, absolute tops, (trust me here) from 'large cities' (+300pop). I suggest NWTI / PNW. NWTI will temper the growth of grotesque anti-White 'Seattle and Portland', establishment types & money people.
But anyways, far off topic.
