Here's a funny thing about AI stealing its training data: I'm interested in occult and esoteric books, of which there are many. I'd wager that at least 95% of them are a repetitious, remixed, and diluted drivel carelessly copied from a few original, insightful tomes. If we created a model based on all occult & esoteric books, it’d probably be useless. It would never return the minority insights, which are the valuable ones. Amateurs need mentors to filter out the chaff based on lived experience.
