You're getting far too defensive, and are missing the point that I'm making about fair use.

Then perhaps let me explain what I mean by fair use:

For example, I'd like to write an ebook reader that can give me an AI summary of the last chapter that I read, or give me a quick AI based summary of who a character is on the page that I'm reading.

Fair use means that I don't need to negotiate with every publisher and every author, or negotiate with Kindle to be able to access their content.

This is why we need compulsory licensing; it makes a middle ground between the exclusive control that you have when you create something, and the eventual entry into public domain.
