Let’s remove the context of AI altogether.

Yeah sure if you do that then you can say anything. But the context is crucial. Imagine that you could prove in court that I went down to the public library with a list that read "Books I want to read for the express purpose of mimicking, and that I get nothing else out of", and on that list was your book. Imagine you had me on tape saying that for me writing is not a creative expression of myself, but rather I am always trying to find the word that the authors I have studied would use. Now that's getting closer to the context of AI. I don't know why you think you would need me to sell verbatim copies of your book to have a good case against me. Just a few passages should suffice given my shady and well-documented intentions.

Well that's basically what LLMs look like to me.
