Your comment makes sense, but we have a real world example to compare to that I think is relevant: YouTube videos. They are not uploaded to torrent sites or other pirate download sites. The closest we have to "pirating" are Invidious proxies. And I'd say that the reason is that the proportion of garbage to quality is so high on YouTube, that pirates don't really want to touch it. If AI slop becomes a problem, it's not going to be included.
The incentive for publishers of AI generated books is that they make money selling them to people.
