Traveller, TAS, and AI

To reiterate, we've been here before.

Ethically speaking, how many books have been ghostwritten, or even cooperatively, with a single person taking the credit?

Personally, I've been considering feeding the military organization aspects of my Vargr thread to an artificial intelligence generator, and see what is extruded, and then submit that.
you are conflating different things

Ghost Writers are PAID to write

people whose prose is stolen by LLC's are not paid

Collaborative writing is usually published under a made up (often conlation of the authors names, Grant Naylor, or James Corey, OR with all author names listed, Niven and Pournelle, or at least mentioned in a preface, Tom Clancy and Larry Bond.) those other cases tend to be rare, and are indeed immoral.

EVERYTHING "written" with an LLC is stealing someonelses words, without exceptiion, sometime with permission, but mostly without, thats a HUGE difference to some edge cases of an edge case of writing.
 
If it is a question of unlicensed copyright, when would that expire?

If the database only extends to that, would it be ethical?

Definitely, in a hundred years from now, since drawing styles seem rather stuck, as music is, we then should be able to employ this method without undue legal or ethical concerns.
