"A corporation destroyed a trove of books!"

"That's terrible, what books were lost?"

"Oh, none. It was a digital collection."

"But people will be inconvenienced by losing the repository, right?"

"No, I mean a corporation deleted a dataset they made, trained from a metaphorical trove of books."

OpenAI trained their models on copyrighted material.

OpenAI deleted the sources so the list of copyrighted materials is unknown.
