What is the point of libraries now that you can just generate them?

I thought this was going to be about libraries containing books, but it works either way.

Why own a book? Much less a building full of them? You can generate an entire book instantly using AI. You can generate thousands, millions, trillions, of books using AI. More information that has ever been known before.

Same for software libraries. Same for software. Need a new virtual instrument of a symphony orchestra, broken down into violins 1, violins 2, cellos, etc.? Just ask AI to build it for you, and it's done. Need a C compiler? Ask AI to build it for you, and it's done.

I own roughly 8 thousand books. If you know, you know. Otherwise there is no way to explain the joy of a physical book, partially read, with a bookmark waiting for your time and attention.
