Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

If you do find your name, go here to file to get your money! www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com

Apparently, that list is incomplete! My books aren't listed, but when I check libgen itself they are, and without my name. Warning, this is a shady site full of scammy popups so I'm not linking directly but find it at your own risk to check for your books. libgen dot li

Sorry, it's Anthropic, not OpenAI. Either way hopefully this prescedent takes them all down. I don't have answers to whether you are eligible, but fill out the form if your name shows up and fancy lawyers will figure it out for you. The form is very simple. I did it in seconds.
