this research paper from 2023 should be similarly interesting. i would go as far as to say the only thing modern “ai” companies have brought to the table to forward the tech is their disregard for copyright law and morality. neural networks have been around since the 60s arxiv.org/abs/2301.13188
Extracting Training Data from Diffusion Models
Image diffusion models such as DALL-E 2, Imagen, and Stable Diffusion have attracted significant attention due to their ability to generate high-quality synthetic images. In this work, we show that di...

people have been misled by years of "computer, enhance" in movies and tv and think that technology actually exists. there is sometimes data in photos you can't see that can be pulled out by someone who knows what they are doing, but that's not what "ai" does

if the reprint shares the isbn of the original (not uncommon) i can see the algorithm thinking it is an exceedingly rare book

many resellers price things with an algorithm that weighs scarcity heavily. i once googled the isbn of a $10 journal from barnes and noble, and it was $300 on amazon (since naturally it was specifically scarce on amazon since it would only be sold there 2nd hand if at all)
