I hope they can at least get compensated.
So where can I check to see if my book was used? I published a book.

they were compensated when the company using the book, purchased the book. you can't tell me what to do with the words written in the book once I've purchased it. nor do you own the ideas or things I come up with as a result of your words in your book. of course this argument only holds up if they purchased the book. if it was "stolen" then they are entitled to the $24.95 their book costs.
Good point. I guess this aspect is much different from the AI Art scene, where the producers of the dataset are usually not compensated for their drawings.
Yea I hope they get their $1 for their contribution
