I would have them make sure there were other copies out there before taking a book apart to scan it.

Or at least MEMORIZED like in “Fahrenheit 451” or “The Book of Eli”.

(Loved the movies by the way!)

Old and historic books MUST be preserved physically—not just as “AI”.

This goes along with teaching young school children to READ—not just use cell phones!

Reading must be taught, preserved, practiced, and honored!!

I myself learned to read at age 4, since my parents provided me with a house full of elementary-level books and I am blessed with a high IQ. Today’s young children must have the opportunity to learn to read and do math.

And 16-19 year olds must have the opportunity to learn calculus! The “experts” who say that calculus is obsolete or unnecessary are full of baloney! Ask MIT—calculus and differential equations are still required at that university!
