What is kaggle.com?
It’s a site frequently used for data analytic contests - better Bayesian algorithms to weed out spam, detect malware, etc. I guess at some point it pivoted to AI. Yup: “AI & ML”
It's also Microsoft's get-out-of-jail-free card here; someone else ripped the ebooks, processed them, and uploaded them under a CC0 Public Domain license. "How were we meant to know the release wasn't authorized?"
