Alex Reisner

I'm a programmer, writer, and tech investigator working to improve our public discussion about the statistical models known as AI. Since 2023, I've broken major stories about the use of pirated books and articles to train AI models (see my Books3 and Library Genesis investigations) and created tools to help creators and publishers discover how their work is being secretly taken and used. I've also written about chatbot hacking, memorization in LLMs, and the ongoing copyright lawsuits. My work has been published in Harper's, The Atlantic, Wired, and Proof News.
