I have updated the licensing terms for my content (words, text, audio) to include training of Artificial Intelligence systems.
If you'd like to train your AI system with my work and content, you can now do so, legally:
An all-access license is now available for only US$ 42000 per month, with a minimum licensing period of 12 months. Retroactive licensing is also available.
