The Amazon Kindle War Against Piracy

Luckily one thing LLMs with image input are ridiculously good at is piracy. You want to get a book off a kindle? Easier than with a real book, easily.

What amazon could block is getting books from other sources onto a kindle. But there's plenty of devices. I use an iPad.

An LLM? Just what I always wanted - an OCR tool that hallucinates.

You don't? Think about it. If your picture/source data is not perfectly clear ... what do you want? We all want perfection, but if you can't have that ...

Would you prefer what current OCR does and just suddenly sentences go 2#!@%7Q&*@3 ladfk !@$?

Or would you rather have a reasonable completion of a sentence that is nearly always (but not quite always) correct, that even actually takes the context into account?
