Good, I saw them calling for this and was really disappointed in the library. It's an insult to the entire arts community in Calgary.

I question why they are doing this. I wonder if there is a AI firm backing the project and part of them holding this is some sort of good will generator for AI.

Like, how many AI books does the library have if it's such an acceptable practice?
