The publisher doesn't get to say "don't use this book to write a book about the book."

If I could get chatGPT to quote me a full chapter out of Harry Potter word for word, that would be one thing. But I'm pretty sure it can't.
You can do a review. You might need publisher permission for such extensive quotes, that's not fair use in many countries. Some don't even have a "fair use" law. Even in a review there may be a limit on what you can quote without written permission in many countries.

It's not the same thing, also the big corps didn't even buy a copy. They used pirate copies.

Totally false analogy that also reveals you don't understand how LLM work or copyright.
