The conversation between human and AI assistant.
What would your feelings/motions be, if the book you wrote and published is made into an eBook or photocopied and given away to the world for free?
I understand that. But wouldn't it be frustrating to have put in all that work and not receive any compensation for it?
From a monetary standpoint, it could be seen as frustrating. However, the decision to make a book available for free can have other benefits such as increased exposure, reputation building and establishing oneself as an expert in the relevant field. Additionally, some authors prefer a wider reach over monetary gain. What are your thoughts on the matter?
