There is something of the meta-humanity going on here. These illustrations are drawn from hundreds of years of human effort, and are being used to enhance our enjoyment of these stories. But it is only possible because of the prior human work.

It's a little like copying the work of hundreds of other artists at once.

Index funds bother me in the same way as in at some point the price discovery mechanism ought to break as everyone just uses one corpus.

All in all, this is an amazing idea, enabled by the work of amazing people, and it is like looking at something significant - I just don't know what :-)
